Yet, those within earshot of the outward-facing silk are subjected to eerie murmurs that amplify with proximity.

He wants them silent and uses his sinister dark magic to keep them quiet about what he did. But Jo, Abony, Ranjani and Maia are not fairy-tale princesses waiting to be rescued. They are fierce, angry women with a bond forged in pain, and they&’re about to discover that they have power of their own.

The Silences of Home
by Caitlin SweetAn epic novel of legends—and lies—from the author of A Telling of Stars, an Aurora Award nominee. It is a time of bounty in the Queensrealm, thanks to Queen Galha, whose wisdom and power are legendary. Her scribes record the glorious events of her reign, but beneath these words lie others—shameful, heartbreaking, and true—that threaten to destroy the realm. A prequel to A Telling of Stars, this is a saga of epic sweep, deeply realized characters, and page-turning suspense. The Silences of Home explores the gulf between official and unwritten accounts of history, and the ways in which individuals, knowingly or not, shape the events of their time—events that pass into myth . . . or silence. “Fans of Guy Gavriel Kay’s books, and readers who enjoy intelligent novels with strong characterization, polished imagery and thematic depth, will certainly find her writing a treat.” —SF Site
