The Ruptured Sky: Gardens of War & Wasteland Book I - Paperback

Princess Amikharlia likes a fight.

Abandoning her homeland, she travels across the ruins of Whyt'hallen to take up the hunt against the mutated remnants of a magical war that killed the gods and tore the sky asunder.

But these vicious beasts are not the darkest shadow hanging over Amika's life-it's the forbidden magic she's hidden since childhood ... and what would happen if it were discovered.

On the trail of a dangerous mark, Amika uncovers a madman who is more than what he seems. He claims her unnatural gifts are prophesied to restore the goddess to her throne, protecting Whyt'hallen from those who seek to rule in her stead.

In return for her help, he offers her training-training that will allow her to control her powers before they control her. But following the prophecy means Amika must relinquish her hard-won liberty ... and destroy the world in the process.

With a dark power rising in the east, threatening to enslave her people, Amika's options grow ever slimmer. She must confront her unwillingness to walk the path of destiny's design-or risk the rise of a malevolent new god.

But can she devastate Whyt'hallen in order to save it?
