A Glow from the Window - by C P Du Toit (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Since Sahle became Queen of Izwe one year ago, she has struggled to understand this new world. She has denied her power. She has lost her closest friend during a recent palace attack. Racked by guilt, she knows her next decisions determine the fate of her kingdom.

Yet, the realm is more chaotic than ever. Magic like hers has not been seen in generations, and she must raise a dormant power if she is to master it. As external threats continue to mount and internal allegiances splinter, marriage becomes the key to holding a nation together. The question is, which man is destined to wear the Consort's crown?

The sequel to A Certain Slant of Light continues Sahle's story amidst the lush, evocative land of a reimagined colonial Africa. Only this time, Sahle must decide how much she is willing to sacrifice for the sake of her people.
