Wild Sun

Wild Sun: Book 1

Ehsan Ahmad
Shakil Ahmad

On a world enslaved, the last embers of hope are fading into an unrelenting darkness. Conquered and broken, the natives are forced to ravage their own lush planet of its natural resources--all for the glory of a mysterious empire they've never seen and barely comprehend.

But not all light is lost. In the heart of one young woman alone, the gods have set a flame that cannot be extinguished. Cerrin remains as fierce and unyielding as the planet itself. And her chance to strike is fast approaching.

Above the skies of her home world, soldiers of the empire are welcoming their new civilian commander--a vicious nobleman blinded by hidden ambitions. When the new face of darkness turns its eyes on Cerrin, the fate of countless worlds will change forever.

Once kindled, the flames of hope are not easily extinguished. No longer bound to a life of forced labor in the enemy's mines, Cerrin leads a small band of escaped slaves in search of a new home in the ancient forest where she was born. But freedom is not the same as victory. And death is never far behind.

Soldiers of an advanced and ruthless empire are forever at their heels. Leading the pursuit is Count Talazeer, a vicious nobleman driven by a personal vendetta against Cerrin... and a desperate need for redemption in the eyes of his family and his people.

Each day of survival is a victory. Turning to f ight their enemy remains an impossible dream. And yet, even as death claims them one by one, the former slaves hold fast to faith in their gods and, above all, in Cerrin.

And now, Cerrin will discover strange new allies--and enemies--are waiting for her people amidst the forest and beyond the stars.
