Asha of Atlantis

The ringed City of Atlantis was the most beautiful place on Earth, with mountains and waterfalls north, a sparkling river to its south leading to the sea, and green farms spreading east farther than the eye could see. It was the best place in the world to have grown up.

But times were changing, and Asha didn't understand that political forces were at play. When she volunteers to undertake a vital warrant from the king, she is stepping into more danger than she realizes. Her task: deliver her father's secret work to Kemet in the Black Lands, three thousand miles away.

It would be a dangerous trek on its own, but between Atlantis in the west and Kemet in the east were the Babaroy, tribal primitives who scoffed at civilization and anyone associated with it. Worse, the Babaroy were brutal, savage, deadly, and rumored to eat any civilized people they captured, not always waiting for them to be dead first.

Still, Asha's mission required not just a blood oath from her but her commitment to putting her king and her people ahead of herselfan arduous taskwhen she suddenly learns the world isn't what she thought it was, and her loyalties may have been misplaced from the very beginning.
