The Priory of the Orange Tree (The Roots of Chaos, #1)
ByPublisher Description
A world divided. A queendom without an heir. An ancient enemy awakens.
The House of Berethnet has ruled Inys for a thousand years. Still unwed, Queen Sabran the Ninth must conceive a daughter to protect her realm from destruction – but assassins are getting closer to her door.
Ead Duryan is an outsider at court. Though she has risen to the position of lady-in-waiting, she is loyal to a hidden society of mages. Ead keeps a watchful eye on Sabran, secretly protecting her with forbidden magic.
Across the dark sea, Tané has trained to be a dragonrider since she was a child, but is forced to make a choice that could see her life unravel.
Meanwhile, the divided East and West refuse to parley, and forces of chaos are rising from their sleep.

“This was a great stand alone! Loved the world, the political intrigue, the characters. I also hadn’t read about dragons like this so really enjoyed that too. It wasn’t overburdened with too many details, allowing your imagination to run wild, and allowed the plot to be what moved the book forward. I wish I could read this as an extended, multi-book series. So much packed into one book and I could have spent to much longer with this story. Because of such an ambitious storyline and being a standalone, it didn’t quite have the emotional punch or my heart rate going though to earn it a higher rating. Would recommend!”
