Thais Morvaren has spent her life hiding the divine power to forge weapons from starlight, but when a priest's ritual exposes her heritage, she and her twin brother are forced into the brutal, once-a-decade Trials of Ascension. Bound to a dangerous, secretive necromancer prince as her mentor, Thais must survive deadly competitions meant to weed out the weak while quietly plotting to take down the god-king responsible for her mother's death. As the trials escalate, tangled loyalties, political intrigue, and a growing, forbidden attraction complicate her path toward vengeance and godhood.
