Will she finally join--even lead--the rebellion that had been burning among the Commoners for years?

“Gifted with her mother’s patience and father’s military prowess, Jes proves an exceptional leader..Magic and religion, patriarchy versus matriarchy, hierarchical versus decentralized government; these themes are all seamlessly integrated into the action-packed plot. High-fantasy series rarely attract serious literary scrutiny, yet when done well—as here—no genre is better fitted to trace the threads of history from past to present and explore the fascinating patterns they weave.”
