DESCRIPTION
Welcome to Matropolis, a matriarchal land under female militia rule, in this first book in a dark and epic dystopian fantasy series from an incredible debut talent. Perfect for fans of TV series Arcane, The Unbroken by C.L. Clark, and Blood Over Bright Haven by M.L. Wang. The fabled Dark Isle is a mystery. Nothing but a patchy shadow on satellite images of the sea. The rumours say it's a land of women, and that only a few lucky men are welcomed. But Ochran sailors keep going missing, and the reality of what happens on the Dark Isle is more than any man can handle .
It is not a man's world.
Annette is a healer, fiercely loyal to her patients in the shanties of Ochre, and overly protective of her brother Adamn and his weak heart. When she is offered a deal to save him from the Ochran Intelligence Agency, she leaps at the opportunity. All she has to do is embark on a dangerous mission to the Dark Isle. Little is known about the island, beyond fearsome tales of sailors going missing near its shore .
On the Dark Isle, Ruthon's mother - and ruler of Matropolis - is dead. Now, Ruthon must compete for the coveted crown to become the next matriarch. And when an enticing outsider stumbles into her arms, she knows she has the perfect opportunity to prove her worth.
But nothing on the Dark Isle is what it seems, and as Annette is swept deeper into its secrets - and into a love she never expected - her loyalties clash with Ruthon's burning quest for power, setting them both on a collision course that could cost them everything .
Relationships are built and destroyed, trust is earnt and then broken, and The Dark Isle becomes a battlefield where morality, ambition, and love fight to come out on top. This is the first book in a dark, epic dystopian fantasy series from an incredible new talent.
