'Empress is an ambitious, impressive and intriguing novel' -
Starburst 'A fine read and a fine start to what could be an
exceptional series.' - The Contra Costa Sunday Times When a
scrawny, unwanted child - so lowly that she does not even have a
name - is sold into slavery, a chain of events is set in motion
that will have a profound impact on all the civilised world. Naming
herself 'Hekat' (after a slaver's observation that she is quite the
hellcat), the girl is taken in chains to Mijak's largest city, but
makes a bargain with a ruthless god and escapes her captors. After
she saves the life of a warlord, he takes her in and teaches her
ways that an orphan might use to prosper in an uncaring world. When
the warlord's family dies, the way becomes clear for Hekat to carve
a dynasty out of infidelity and betrayal. . . Empress is an epic
fantasy of power, politics and the rise and fall of empires. Books
