A girl matches wits with a war god in this kaleidoscopic, epic tale
of oppression and the cost of peace, where stories hide within
other stories, and narrative has the power to heal… or to burn
everything in its path. In the winding underground tunnels of the
Library, the great celestial peacekeeper of the three systems, a
terrible secret lies buried. As the daughter of a Library god,
Freida has spent her whole life exploring the Library's
ever-changing tunnels and communing with the gods. Her unparalleled
access makes her unique – and dangerous. When Freida meets
Joshua, a mortal boy desperate to save his people, and Nergüi, a
Disciple from a persecuted religious minority, Freida is compelled
to break ranks with the gods and help them. But in order to do so,
she will have to venture deeper into the Library than she has ever
known. There she will discover the atrocities of the past, the
truth of her origins, and the impossibility of her future… With
the world at the brink of war, Freida embarks on a journey to
fulfil her destiny, one that pits her against an ancient war god.
Her mission is straightforward: Destroy the god before he can rain
hellfire upon thousands of innocent lives – if he doesn't destroy
her first. A sparkling, thought-provoking new offering from World
Fantasy Award-winning author Alaya Dawn Johnson.
