"Morgan Rice has come up with what promises to be another brilliant series, immersing us in a fantasy of valor, honor, courage, magic and faith in your destiny. Morgan has managed again to produce a strong set of characters that make us cheer for them on every page....Recommended for the permanent library of all readers that love a well-written fantasy." --Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos (regarding Rise of the Dragons) From #1 Bestselling author Morgan Rice comes a sweeping new fantasy series. 17 year old Ceres, a beautiful, poor girl in the Empire city of Delos, lives the harsh and unforgiving life of a commoner. By day she delivers her father's forged weapons to the palace training grounds, and by night she secretly trains with them, yearning to be a warrior in a land where girls are forbidden to fight. With her pending sale to slavehood, she is desperate. 18 year old Prince Thanos despises everything his royal family stands for. He abhors their harsh treatment of the masses, especially the brutal competition-The Killings-that lies at the heart of the city. He yearns to break free from the restraints of his upbringing, yet he, a fine warrior, sees no way out. When Ceres stuns the court with her hidden powers, she finds herself wrongfully imprisoned, doomed to an even worse life than she could imagine. Thanos, smitten, must choose if he will risk it all for her. Yet, thrust into a world of duplicity and deadly secrets, Ceres quickly learns there are those who rule, and those who are their pawns. And that sometimes, being chosen is the worst that can happen. SLAVE, WARRIOR, QUEEN tells an epic tale of tragic love, vengeance, betrayal, ambition, and destiny. Filled with unforgettable characters and heart-pounding action, it transports us into a world we will never forget, and makes us fall in love with fantasy all over again. Book #2 in OF CROWNS AND GLORY is also now available!

" «Don't you see? You're not like them. You don't fight, you don't kill, you don't impose yourself on others. You're not a barbarian, you're not looking for war or conflicts, you're different. You try to understand, you take the chance to learn what you don't know, you look for peace. And that's what I like of you. You're nothing like them. Believe me, John. You're the eternal Summer in my neverending Winter.» " ~❈~ May 1610. John Rolfe arrives in Jamestown on the Sea Venture, flagship of the Virginia Company, as part of the Third Supply Fleet. He's one of the few survivors, and he's glad to finally have reached a new place where to live. Unfortunately, life isn't as easy as he would have thought when he had left Plymouth months before, and he has now to find a way to survive the starvation that is menacing the colony and, perhaps, to be able to make a little dream of his come true. March 1613. Pocahontas is captured by Captain Samuel Argall, and kept as ransom until her tribe will not free some Englishmen and will give back some weapons they have stolen. But, not satisfied by the few weapons received by the Natives, the British men decide to keep her captive, and she has to find a way to survive among the men's harassing and the continuous tentatives of Alexander Whitaker to turn her into a British woman. But when John Rolfe and Pocahontas's paths cross, it will be their duty to choose whether continuing to follow their road or stepping into the new path together. ~❈~ DISCLAIMER: Most of the dialogues, costumes and attitudes of the various characters have been romanticised. References to events which have actually taken place are totally casual, except when referred to the main sources which can be found online. • THE POWHATAN LANGUAGE DIED 400 YEARS AGO. • The Author is doing her best to give you the most accurate version of it, but not being a Native, she can not do too much.
