Tidecaller Chronicles

Aletheia was born a heresy: a girl with a man's magic, in a city where monks and witches are mortal enemies. Training in her powers only under her father's protection, head of the monastery, she shocks everyone by becoming the best seer in generations. Until her father is murdered. A suicide, they call it, but she knows the truth: he was murdered for his heresy. For her. Now she must make a harrowing choice: disown everything her father stood for to stay alive, or flee the temple and seek to expose his killers, even as they hunt her down. Daughter of Flood and Fury is the gripping first book in the Tidecaller Chronicles. If you like strong female leads, clever magic and page-turning action, then you'll love Levi Jacobs' epic fantasy adventure. Buy it today and find out if the girl born a heresy will live to be a hero.

The flood is coming, and sooner than anyone thought. Burdened with visions of the end, mourning the loss of her allies, and desperate to save a lover trapped under her enemy's control, Aletheia seeks aid in the opulent city-state of Dahran. A family friend there reveals the location of her father's papers, key to stopping the flood and understanding her enemy's power. It seems like the perfect heist-until the friend betrays her, stealing the papers and locking Aletheia in a gladiator prison. As the flood draws close, she faces an impossible choice: escape at the cost of serving her betrayer, or fight her way free over the bodies of the allies she makes inside.
