Zorva

By Francisco M. Martinez

A Dark Fantasy of Blood, Myth & Power · Related to The Hermit Book Series

Genre and Literary Identity

Zorva is a dark fantasy of primal kingdoms, conquest, survival, mythic violence, and the making of a queen across the Mirror-Sands, the Red Steppe, bone thrones, and drowned cities.

Zorva crossed the Mirror-Sands and lived.

In a world still young, savage, and ruled by hunger, the white glass desert does not forgive weakness. It cuts the feet, blinds the eyes, and buries the broken beneath its burning glare.

Zorva is not broken.

Larger than most women, hardened by pain, and armed with the brutal axe called Doombringer, she rises from the waste with one purpose: survive first, conquer next. Raiders, scavengers, khans, slavers, and dying kings stand in her path. One by one, they learn the same truth.

Zorva does not beg for a place in the world. She takes one.

From the Mirror-Sands to the Red Steppe, from bone thrones to drowned cities, her march becomes more than vengeance. It becomes the birth of a horde. It becomes the making of a queen.

Before kingdoms had law, before mercy had a name, Zorva made the world kneel.

A visceral dark fantasy of blood, myth, power, and conquest.
