A DESTINY SHE NEVER CHOSE. A FATE, SHE CAN'T ESCAPE. Alira Verbrandt, the Princess of Namelle, savored the scholastic tranquility of her life until the Illyrian Empire descended from the north. On the eve of battle, Alira is drawn into the center of a war that has raged for a thousand years. Unveiled as a Fate, the descendant of a legendary bloodline, destiny is thrust upon her. Alira must navigate her mortal obligation of defending her people from an empire who means to destroy them, while finding others like her to awaken a rebellious god that may be her last hope.. At the heart of her worry, an ancient record foretells the return of their creator. He who shall pass a final judgment over both humanity and the gods, one they may not survive. The Waking of Storm and Flame is the first book in N.A. Betts' 'The Fates of Aten' series, and the author's debut novel. It is perfect for fans of Danielle L. Jensen's, A Fate Inked in Blood, and those who enjoyed the elemental magic of M.L. Wang's, The Sword of Kaigen.
