Into Shadow collection

Alix E. Harrow, a New York Times bestselling author, sets this story in a world shaped by endless conflict. A servant girl's life is kept intact by the Saint of War, who has a different future in mind for her: becoming the most formidable fighter the kingdom has ever seen. She lives with a constant awareness of what she owes and comes to measure her own worth as the blade in the Prince's grip.

Her campaigns carry him first to the throne and then to imperial power. Bards compose songs about her, and her enemies learn to fear her name. But the fighting never stops, and its price keeps climbing, until she has to wonder how many more times she will have to live through the same story.

The Six Deaths of the Saint is one entry in Into Shadow, a collection of dark fantasy tales built around the pull of forbidden knowledge. Each story can be read or listened to in one sitting.
