Andrea stewart, author of The Bone Shard Collector
The first in a high fantasy trilogy, inspired by Ireland's history of rebellion and fight for independence.
With their Gods returned as titanic, feral creatures, the island of Croí finally rises up against the oppressive Empire of the Answering. Yet as they battle for their freedom, only Sister Wake asks the question, are the gods really on their side, after all?
