Reign of Ashes

Asha, a head strong and fierce Warrior, has just barely escaped her nemesis's flaming castle alive-and thankfully, not empty handed. After capturing Khaba's pet, Asha returns to her superior, the supercilious Mina, and prays she won't be too angered by her failure, but her hopes are quickly dashed.

Scornful of Asha's failure, Mina sets her household on a new course, determined to put an end to Khaba's reign of terror and foil his new plan of removing the King of Galnormada from his throne. Asha and her companions sail for the mysterious kingdom on a turbulent and frightfully lengthy journey, one that will take Asha farther than she has ever travelled before. With her companions by her side, Asha feels unstoppable and ready to take on any challenge that presents itself, but an unexpected arrival to the household quickly unravels secrets and plots far beyond anything she trained for.

As her journey continues, Asha realizes she still has much to learn about the world and relies heavily on her training at the Sugiliate Warrior Academy to guide her, but discipline and oaths do not always lead to the right choices. Sometimes, her vow to be the greatest Warrior of all puts her-and those she cares about-in greater danger than ever before.

Reign of Ashes, the second book of The Sugilite Warrior Series, is a dark, action-packed fantasy of loyalty, ambition, and the cost of choosing duty over the heart-as every decision could bring Asha closer to a future not of her making or desire.
