First Chosen

On her 21st birthday, in a moment of great need, Julianna frees an ancient god of vengeance--Grandfather Shadow--from his thousand-year prison. In gratitude for his freedom, Grandfather Shadow names Julianna his high priest and commands her to unite his scattered followers and lead his people to greatness once again. But among Julianna's people it is a crime to worship the ancient greater gods--a crime punishable by execution and the destruction of her soul. While avoiding followers of the God of Death and Inquisitors of the Kingdom of the Sun, Julianna must come to terms with her new place in the world...because refusing a command from the god of vengeance is not a viable choice.
