Gildenhammer: The Beating of her Heart (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781764027045)

The epiphanic sequel to Blackcloak is here.

Charan Jaydemyr's dreams were a psychological vivisection.

His sister's reality will be much worse.

In a world that has been made to forget her and her Noble family, Sariana Jaydemyr struggles for an identity beyond that of her lost brother's keeper. As a child, she is Sarah-Jade Falkenstrom, daughter of a famous singer in the city of Teristra. As a teen, she is Tzara-Min, spirited away to a sinister abbey devoted to ritualistic childbirth overseen by Mother Chantal. And as Sister Talon of the Liquid Night, she journeys east to Kaifeng, answering a summons her brother has no idea he made right before he and Fa Shai-Yeh left the Imperial capital in chaos.

And only one person knows of Sariana's secret memories: Vachaelle Nightsong, who also claims the names Fa Shai-Yeh...and Chantal Falkenstrom.

Blackcloak was a distorted, egocentric mirror. Gildenhammer is the unrelenting reality unable to look away from the reflection.
