The Mockingjays Lament

di Selene Brixton (Autore)

Inkwell publishers, 2025

From abandoned child to ultimate weapon—the price of power is always paid in blood. Sold for twenty pieces of silver and abandoned to the brutal fortress of Voltory, the girl known only as "Girl" survives by becoming the perfect weapon they demand. But when she discovers the corpse of Sean—her only protector—among the elders' secret collection of failures, her world shatters completely. Fleeing into a wilderness filled with impossible dangers, she encounters the family she never knew existed: Marcus, Elena, and Kai, siblings who have spent sixteen years searching for their lost sister. They call her by her true name—Mockingjay—and welcome her into a rebellion against the very system that created her. But when Voltory's forces destroy her newfound family, Mockingjay's grief transforms into something far more dangerous. Driven by vengeance, she enters the legendary Twenty Trials—tests of power that push warriors beyond the boundaries of human limitation. Each trial transforms her further, granting abilities that could reshape reality itself. From the Arena of Shadows where she learns to fight without sight, to the Dragon Queen's realm where she discovers the true cost of violence, to the Forge of Will where thoughts become reality—Mockingjay evolves from broken child into something unprecedented. But power without wisdom is destruction, and with each victory, she faces a terrible truth: the line between hero and monster is thinner than she ever imagined. When she finally returns to exact her revenge, Mockingjay must confront not only the corrupt system that destroyed her childhood, but the growing darkness within herself. Some prices can only be paid with your soul—and some weapons, once forged, can never be unmade. A dark fantasy of transformation, revenge, and the terrible cost of becoming what the world needs you to be.
