Spyridon is controlled by a vicious warlord, and Mikhél wants Jane to join the fight for freedom. As she secretly trains for battle on a ship filled with enemy spies and slaves who would turn her in to save themselves, she can’t help but wonder—can she really fight for a world that wants her dead? She’d better decide quickly, because the enemy won’t wait until she reaches Spyridon to strike. Mystery, romance, and suspense mingle in the debut novel from Lillian James. Spyridon is the first installment in a riveting science fiction trilogy about how one woman’s journey home sparks a revolution millennia in the making.
