AMNAR: THE INHERITANCE by Isabel Joely Black

Fueled by anger at the death of her sister, Io has chosen to become Guardian Defender of Amnar. She has stepped out of the repressive Duum State into an Empire riven by political in-fighting and confusion. It falls to Io herself, now strengthened by her experiences in Duum, to sort out what, exactly, is going on. She finds herself mired in intrigue, drama, and angry Servants. Determined to uncover the truth, Io begins to build alliances as she prepares to face off the Empress of Amnar herself. With her Senior Servant Arandes imprisoned in Duum, and rumours of a strange mental plague spreading out from the city, Io refuses to let anything get in her way as she prepares herself to become Guardian Defender and lead Amnar into a new world. AMNAR: THE INHERITANCE is the second book in the Awakening series. Praise and reviews for AMNAR: THE AWAKENING: "If you like complex fantasy universes, this is for you. If you like a story with suspense and action, this is for you. If you're like me, and a world having its own language is cool, this is for you. If you like to read or be read to, this is for you." - iTunes review "Amnar plays like a movie in my head with your readings, and this chapter was amazing. At the moment, I think Zoriel is my favorite character. I really look forward to Fridays, and I'm dying to know what happens next!" iTunes US Review "I highly recommend it for fans of fantasy literature and most who aren't fans will still enjoy this novel." - Three Black Dots Blog
