Perfect for fans of high-heat fantasy—think Ice Planet Barbarians spice meets Naomi Novik's worldbuilding. This series reads like your favorite bingeable show—that delicious 'something's coming' tension, each character peeling back another layer, twisting what you thought you knew into something else entirely. Dark, addictive, and so much fun to untangle.

Welcome back to Nuama. In this decadent realm, winged women rule. Men are trained in the domestic and pleasure arts. Life is peaceful, pleasurable, and safe—until traitors are discovered in the household of the Empress.
But that isn't the only threat facing Nuama—an ancient hellrealm is bleeding into theirs. If the flow of evil cannot be staunched, both worlds will shatter.
Book one was about setting the stage, but book two is about scattering the pieces far & wide. Every character you've come to love is put to the test... and one is put in grave danger from which she may never return.
Welcome back to paradise. Enjoy it while it lasts.
