Syrma has lived on a remote island, hidden from everyone, ever since an enraged mob destroyed her kingdom. What she never could have imagined is that she is the victim of a curse, one orchestrated by a vengeful goddess who demands her as a sacrifice. To escape that fate, she must confront the goddess and destroy her before her next birthday.

Together with her dragon bodyguard, a pocket-sized griffin, a forest witch, and the god of deceit himself, she sets out to survive by following in the footsteps of a legendary sorcerer queen.
