A Viking witch touched by the gods, a magi prince from a mysterious world, a love that will shape the destiny of a kingdom.
Betrayed by her gods, Fen is sold by raiders to the mysterious People of Sand and Sky and taken to Aaru, a world of impossible beauty and cruelty. An accidental encounter with the pharaoh's son will alter her fate, offering Fen a chance to earn her freedom in the most unexpected way.
Khan knows that change is coming to Aaru, but he never anticipated it to be in the form of a fierce witch from another world. Fen is a gift from the gods, and he will do everything he can to keep her safe.
Prince and slave strike a bargain; Khan will protect her and send her home in a year's time, and in return, Fen will teach him about her magic and gods while pretending to be his royal concubine.
When betrayal burns Khan's world down, neither he nor Fen can predict how their bond will change them, awakening fierce magic and a love that will impact the very fate of Aaru itself.
