Calling all rebels - whether you are taking on galactic empires, occupying forces or the patriarchy. In C.L. Clark’s The Unbroken, Luca and Touraine clash in a world full of rebellion and espionage, caught between colonialism and revolution in a story rife with familial, political and romantic tension. The seven resistance fighters in Seven Mercies by Laura Lam and Elizabeth May are taking on their most dangerous mission yet - infiltrating the heart of an empire that has set a high bounty on them. Armed with a prophecy and strange magic, Malini and Priya, the two women at the heart of Tasha Suri’s The Jasmine Throne and its sequel The Oleander Sword, set out to save their people - but can they save each other?
