In a tale of love, legacy and magic, one fiery couple forced apart must navigate a deadly maze of politics and power to reunite across a continent at war…Torn from the arms of her husband Reid and dragged back to her homeland in chains, Vaasa is no longer a ruler, but a political pawn. With her magic under the control of her family’s former advisor, Ozik, Vaasa is coerced to partake in his games. Aiming to install himself as the true power of Asterya, Ozik intends to force Vaasa to wed a wealthy lord. But before his plan can play out, Vaasa discovers a cryptic message from her late mother detailing a precious gift that might be the answer to freeing her magic… if she can find it. Meanwhile, across the continent, Reid is done playing politics. But waging war is never simple, and brute force will only go so far. With allies fading and time slipping away, Reid finds he has no choice but to infiltrate Asterya alone in order to bring home the woman he loves.What will Vaasa and Reid do for agency in a world that seeks to take it from them? Fighting against imprisonment and conniving bureaucratic schemes, the pair must risk it all to finally return to one another, and save Icruria from the supernatural forces brewing behind the Asteryan throne.

Imperial Cults is a comparative study of the transformation of imperial religion and imperial authority in the early Han and Roman empires. During the reigns of the Emperor Wu of Han and Octavian Augustus of Rome, the rulers undertook substantial reforms to their respective systems of cult, at a time when they were re-shaping the idea of imperial authority and consolidating their own power. The changes made to religious institutions during their reigns show how these reforms were a fundamental part of the imperial consolidation. Employing a comparative methodology the author discusses some of the common strategies employed by the two rulers in order to centre religious and political authority around themselves. Both rulers incorporated new men from outside of the established court elite to serve in their religious institutions and as advisors, thus weakening the authority of those who had traditionally held it. They both expanded the reach of their imperially-sponsored cult, and refashioned important ceremonies to demonstrate and communicate the unprecedented achievements of each ruler. Emperor Wu recruited experts in mantic knowledge from far reaches of the empire, while Augustus co-opted loyal followers into the newly revived priestly colleges. Robinson shows how the rulers used their respective religious institutions to consolidate their authority, secure support, and communicate their authority to the elite and commoners alike. By using the comparative approach, the author not only reveals similar trends in the formation of ancient empires, but also shows how new perspectives on familiar material can be found when engaging with other societies.
