Summary
The Empire Wars is a powerful YA debut where survival and magic are a deadly mix.
Coa, who was born feral in the North Transatlantic wilds, has just been captured. Now, Coa is subject to public humiliation and execution in a gruesome spectacle known as The Great Hunt.
If participants die in the Great Hunt, their entire family will be executed—in front of everyone.

Coa’s best hope of survival might be Princess Ife—born of privilege, but newly married into the authoritarian lineage.
Her riskier choice is an alliance with a gorgeous, cunning fellow participant, marked as a traitor to his militarized nation. Coa entangles herself with the captivating young man, but soon finds he could be her ultimate downfall …
