Curse Of The Shamra

"When the peaceful and isolated land of the Shamra is invaded and its people enslaved, a young Shamra girl named Dara must lead a ragtag resistance to defeat their conquerors. Dara's quest is complicated by the Shamra's cultural opposition to women in leadership roles, her own self-doubts, and those of her followers. Venturing into uncarted territory to seek allies, Dara encounters unusual creatures and dangerous lands. Her rebellious spirit is the only hope the Shamra have to regain their freedom. Does she succeed? And at what cost?"--P. [4] of cover.
