The Witch Without Memory: Book Two of The Obsidian Throne

The second epic installment of the Obsidian Throne trilogy, an epic fantasy of betrayal, memory, and the fight for an empire, in which a prince and a witch must find a way to burn the world to the ground in order to raise it up out of the ashes.

An empress with vengeance in her heart

Prince Ashoka’s sister, Aarya, has named herself empress and is determined to reverse her brother’s mercy for the mayakari.

A witch lost in dreams

Shakti is being held by shadowy figures, drugged and forced to commit an unspeakable crime. When she wakes, she finds herself prisoner, but gaps in her memory around the curse she has cast trap her more thoroughly than any cage.

The prince trying to change the world

Ashoka must find allies and quickly if he is to usher in a new dawn for the mayakari, but the tougher the decision he makes, the farther he gets from his true self. He must determine what he is willing to lose in pursuit of his vision of the future.

The first blow has been dealt by Ashoka and Shakti, but the empire not only remains, it appears stronger—and more brutal—than ever. Both must find ways to fight back before nature is deprived of its spirits and guardians, and the reign of the new empress spreads its destruction and oppression to lands beyond.
