Even though the rebellion
was decisively crushed four years ago, Cassa and her friends have never given
up hope of bringing down the ruling council.
But how do
you fight someone who knows the future, who can predict your actions before
you even know them yourself? The council of Eldra have ruled for centuries because
of the seers and their predictions. Every major event in history, and those yet
to come, have been seen and recorded, telling the council exactly what they
need to do to retain control.
When random
citizens begin to suddenly get struck down, losing all of their memories and
becoming nothing but empty shells, Cassa and her friends know they need to act.
They hatch a daring plan to sneak into the citadel and gather evidence, but are
betrayed and captured before they can even begin their task.
In Beneath the Citadel,
being sentenced to death is only the beginning of the story. Soria
unfolds a complex tale of plots and counterplots, intrigue, predictions, and
outright lies. Nothing is quite what it seems, and it is difficult to tell which
side anyone is truly on.

Released in October 2018, this is Soria's second book (her first was Iron Cast).
Soria's writing
is compelling and draws you forward at a rapid pace, but does not skimp when it
comes to crafting a lavishly constructed world and multi-layered characters. The
seers and diviners might know what’s coming next, but the reader never does.
You won’t want to put it down.
