Consort of War
About this ebook
After ascending to godhood as Queen of the Underworld, Kigal has at last made her kingdom her own—until an equally powerful deity comes to steal the throne. Inanna, Goddess of Warfare and Lust. In her grasp is the one hostage Kigal would do anything to save, even if it means becoming a monster. And a monster she becomes.
For her insolence, the goddess’s life is rightfully Kigal’s to claim, but as the heavens turn on each other and the lands begin to die, she finds herself fighting for a justice that even the gods cannot deliver. When the fallout of her actions threatens to bring humanity to its knees, the Queen of the Underworld is left with one question: how far will she go, and who will she damn, in pursuit of revenge?
A retelling of the world’s oldest recorded myth, Consort of War is the second novella in the completed Mesopotamian fantasy Queen of Shades series.
