The Perfect Player
Marissa of Mynae

Destructive demonic forces, cryptic messages, and a destiny entangled with death.  Marissa thought being tethered to a life of future leadership was burdensome.  She had no idea what was to come.

In The Perfect Player, a reluctant female heir begins to discover she must rectify a lethal mistake made ages past by Orenda, the long-dead creator and Mistress of the Caendorian world.  But she is only given one half of the key that would end the brutal game of bestial predator versus human prey.  The other half lies in the hands of Locrian, a renegade beast who has sworn to protect the Maker’s Eye, Orenda’s portal to other worlds.  An alliance between them would end the tyranny wrought against the Caendorian people and prevent the beasts from gaining access to what once freed them from their own Dark Master.  Marissa, however, refuses to accept what Orenda has decreed as her fate, and the survival of the Caendorian people hang in the balance.
