Klappentext

At fourteen, Delta has crossed half the continent and braved innumerable trials alongside her nomadic family. But her toughest challenge still lies ahead. Tasked with attending a sorcery academy in the far-flung city of Samarzal, she must first survive the perilous journey there.

With her uncle and cousin, she joins a caravan that ventures onto the notorious Forsaken Road, a treacherous path plagued by hungry demons, evil necromancers, and murderous locals.

Not all is darkness, though. Bonds of friendship are forged along the journey, but some travellers harbour secrets darker than the Forsaken Road. Would Delta's resolve and newfound allies be enough for her to complete her journey?

Delta is no princess or kickass heroine with flowing skirts. Just a girl from the plains, coming of age in a brutal, fascinating world. This is a story of grit, resilience, and growing up under unforgiving stars.

The Forsaken Road beckons. Walk it if you dare.
