She must protect Xarion at all cost, even if she has to die doing it. Because if she fails, all is lost.Star's duty has always been to protect Xarion, who is Cleopatra's son. Being a Shythe Kythan, she can wield the power of Charge, or electricity. But, this also means she will always serve the Pharaohs because of a curse. She takes her duty very seriously, but it's hard to stay focused when you have feeling for the future ruler of Alexandria. Who also happens to be human. And it's forbidden for Kythan's to be with humans. Star has to put this all aside because there is a new threat to the throne. A new race of Kythan, that are far stronger that the Shythe's and Narcos, rise. Star thought that being in love with the heir to the throne was dangerous, but it's nothing compared to what's coming after them.There will be hope, there will be death and there will be the deepest of betrayals in this kick-butt novel by Trisha Wolfe.Oh how I love a good strong Heroine. And that's exactly what Star was. Throughout the book, duty always came first......well almost always *wink wink* I loved Destiny's Fire last year, and I loved getting more background on the Narcos, which wield fire and the Shythe's, which wield electricity. It's like all this is leading up to that book and...well.. it is..so I don't know why I said that. LOL. Anyway.. for all you romance lovers out there, this is a tragic one. A human and a Kythan are forbidden to mate with each other. What's even more tragic is that everyone wants to kill Xarion. Star is torn between love and duty. My thoughts are all over the place right now, and I don't even know what else to say. I loved this book and I need MORE.Star- She is fiercely loyal. She knows what needs to be done and the risk that she needs to take. She isn't afraid to take a hit and to shed some blood. I would not want to be on her bad side.Xarion- There was some times where he annoyed me, but all those thoughts vanished after the bathroom scene. ;) There is a sneak peek down below of that. :DPheonix- hahahaha. he is hilarious. He is the man whore in the book, and I love him. He might seem all bad, but he's really not.Favorite Quote:They are sisters to me, both Egyptian war goddesses, and I am a descendant- my name chosen for me by the gods.I am Astarte.I am wrath.
