Blood Scion by Deborah Falaye (Blood Scion book 1)

 


“This is what they deserve. They wanted me to be a monster. I will be the worst monster they ever created.


Fifteen-year-old Sloane can incinerate an enemy at will—she is a Scion, a descendant of the ancient Orisha gods.


Under the Lucis’ brutal rule, her identity means her death if her powers are discovered. But when she is forcibly conscripted into the Lucis army on her fifteenth birthday, Sloane sees a new opportunity: to overcome the bloody challenges of Lucis training, and destroy them from within.


Sloane rises through the ranks and gains strength but, in doing so, risks something greater: losing herself entirely, and becoming the very monster that she ahbors.” - taken from Goodreads.


This is not a happy story nor a fantasy book suited for everyone. Sloane Shades' life is hard, especially since her mother's disappearance. When she is drafted into the army at the age of 15, her life is turned upside down. In order to survive, she must kill or be killed. Driven by vengeance, Sloane soon finds herself doing whatever it takes to thrive.


With major secrets revealed and a cliffhanger ending, readers will be left waiting for book two.
