faye t. knight

Forced into hiding by the self-proclaimed ruler of Qora, Emperor Osiro, the Gantune tribe lives beneath the desert sand waiting for salvation. Their only hope is Princess Kalkuro Azura.

Like her mother before her, Kalkuro was born a talisman - a human sacrifice. Her blood holds the power to link the minds of Gantunes and eagles, forming a telepathic bond that must never be broken. When the princess is kidnapped mere days before her Farewell Ceremony, she must choose to stay or flee. There is something strange about her captor. His silver eyes give away the fact that he is a Kantar - one of the enemy, but he begs her to translate writings in a hidden cave, revealing the long-forgotten history of a powerful jewel…The Legend of Sophia.
