The breathtaking conclusion to the Obsidian Throne trilogy, in which a prince and a witch must call on devastating powers to strike at the heart of an empire intent on destroying them.
A Prince at war with an empire
With the blood of his brother and mother on his hands, Prince Ashoka Maurya has become a traitor to his empire. Sequestering himself in the city of Taksila, he plots to seize the Obsidian Throne from the last Maurya standing—his vengeful sister, Aarya. Though his foreign allies give him an advantage, Ashoka knows that if he is to succeed, he must rely on an ancient power, and the witch with impossible control of it, to deal the Empire’s fatal blow.
A Witch with powers unleashed
Shakti now knows the true origin of her extraordinary powers: a curse that ties a Great Spirit’s life force to hers, giving her far more power than any other mayakari. Determined to see Ashoka on the Obsidian Throne, Shakti proposes a bold and dangerous plan: to use her connection to control Great Spirits and use them as soldiers in his name. Great Spirits, when aggrieved, are destructive gods with no allegiance. But Shakti knows that to control the Great Spirits is to control the land itself, and risks must be taken if they are to tear Aarya’s bloody empire to the ground.
