A hunted woman. A missing god. The adventure of a lifetime.
All that Shada desires is peace and freedom. What she has is fear and hunger. She's a servant on the run from her cruel master, who is determined to lock her away.
Then comes a chance at a new life. Alone in the vast, heartless city of Ronia, she meets the Lady. This enigmatic spirit makes her an offer: Shada can accept her dismal lot... or undertake a quest to find Ronia's vanished god.
For the gods disappeared without a trace in the long-ago age of legend, leaving the worlds of humans to chaos and war. Without its god, Ronia's once-mighty empire is crumbling toward an abyss.
To save their people, Shada and her ragtag companions will journey to the ends of the universe. But first, they must escape Ronia alive.
Many in this city of blades, poison, and shadow mean to stop them at all costs. If they fail, slavery or death await them... and their world will fall into darkness.
Summoning and Sacrifice is the opening book of the Liturgy of Worlds epic fantasy series.
