Prince Ashoka is the youngest son of the tyrannical Emperor Adil Maurya. Considered an outcast by his father for his rejection of the emperor’s brutal onslaught against the witches of the empire, Ashoka longs for change. When the sudden and unexpected death of his father leaves the monarchy in disarray, Ashoka is sent to govern a tumultuous region annexed by Emperor Adil that is terrorized by nature spirits—a task many see as doomed to fail.

Shakti is a witch, a mayakari trained to commune with nature and never to cause harm. But her people have been hunted by Emperor Adil’s brutal reign for decades. Will she betray their most sacred laws and choose violence to save them? Prince Ashoka was raised by his father, the emperor, to rule the world with cruelty and fear. And yet he can’t even kill a deer and detests his father’s brutality. He must find a way to tear apart his father’s violent legacy before succumbing to it.
