An action-packed tale of power and revenge, The Curse of Ophidia is a compelling slow burn romantasy perfect for fans of Carissa Broadbent and Nisha J. Tuli."Don't you dare forget who I am and what I can do."
A queen
Three years after Tamariya Amunet inherited a blood soaked crown, her grasp on the throne is weak, her kingdom struggles to rebuild, and her advisors grapple for power. Preoccupied with the disappearance of her magic, a gift that could bring the entire kingdom to heel, Tamariya nearly overlooks a rebellion brewing right under her nose. As she uncovers a sinister plot to destroy magic in the realm, the Queen of Naqad takes matters into her own hands to quash the force threatening her reign.
A prince
Caryk Cazaar, the striking, brooding Prince of Etrusca, seeks the hand of the queen, despite his apparent loathing of the monarch. The prince is a thorn in Tamariya's side: challenging her every move and sticking his nose where it does not belong, namely in her midnight trysts with her longtime lover. But as conspiracies blossom, Caryk's presence at court transforms from irritating to ominous.
A Viper
Ophidians are real, and they're just as terrifying as the bedtime stories imply. The cabal of fae-like serpent shifters steal the most powerful mage children and induct them into their order. Their leader, the notorious Viper Queen, is rumored to be at the heart of the plot to destroy magic, that is, any magic that she cannot control. Tamariya must stop the Viper Queen and save the mages, lest their gifts will be lost for good, forcing Naqad into permanent destitution.
