Description
Tair has never known what it means to belong. Abandoned at a young age and raised in an all-Elven valley, she defines herself by isolation, confined to her small family. Her life is uprooted when her family leads her on a treacherous journey to Doman, the site of unspeakable Human atrocities. In this new land, Tair discovers new definitions of family and love, but also uncovers the lies that have defined her existence. With an awful responsibility to the Humans of Sossoa, she must decide where her loyalties lie and discover who she wants to be - and who she has always been. Adesina Brown's debut fantasy novel explores a richly nuanced world with new languages and thoughtful considerations of gender and race, contemplating how freeing ourselves from power can lead us to true belonging.
