(CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, Sept. 16, 2015)
Enter a world of magic and combat; a world controlled by malicious Courts that promote the kidnapping of children; a world of enslaved Units fighting to the death purely for entertainment; a world with a rising rebellion; enter the world of Game Board. Fye remembers nothing of her childhood. Like all other Units, her memories were erased when the chains were put on to make her what she is. A Unit: superhuman with incredible speed, strength, and enhanced skill with weapons. For as long as she can remember, Fye has been controlled by a Master through her chains. She has fought many battles on numerous Court Game Boards, and has been traded to various Masters both kind and cruel. As an exceedingly rare Unit with both battle magic and healing powers, Fye must hide who she truly is for fear of death. Units with dual magic like her have long since been outlawed, hunted, and exterminated by the Courts. If anyone knew her secret, Fye would be killed. Fye’s travels take her and her fellow Units throughout the city and beyond into rebel territory, where her new and mysterious Master claims to have allies among the revolutionaries. A rebellion is brewing, and they plan to overthrow the Courts--but the odds are stacked against them. Fye must fight for her freedom and her belief that the reign of oppression must come to an end. Along the way, she learns many things about love and the power of friendship. If she is to survive, Fye must learn to trust those close to her and count on them in times of need--and she must take a stand for what she knows is right. She will have to take up the challenge of beating the unbeatable--and the personal sacrifices that come along with it. Book One of Two
