Praise for THE SCYTHIAN TRIALS

"... Fun and sensual fantasy [with] magnetic characters." ―Publishers Weekly

"The Scythian Trials crackles with life, hums with heart, and pounds with action for one hell of a read." ―San Francisco Book Review

"If you loved the Hunger Games and Divergent and just all around kicka$$ characters with an amazing storyline then you will love this." ―Books With Jess

Descendants of the Amazons, the Scythians work alongside prominent governments but answer to no one. Warriors living on the fringe of civilization, they live by one credo: Strength through Equality. Power through Knowledge.

Nya Thalestris is the brightest Scythian of her generation. Strong, capable, ruthless, she is sure to earn a spot in the Trials, a time-honored mating ritual responsible for the evolution of her species.

Abducted by their sworn enemy, the Drahzda, Nya is forever altered and spirals out of control. The Society sends in Jax Nickius. Infamous psychologist and one of the most brutal warriors of their kind, he discovers triggers planted in Nya’s mind. As Nya solidifies her spot in the Trials, Jax develops a plan to help—while pursuing her as a mate. But, Nya’s attraction to Jax is at war with her instinct to never let anyone get too close.

During the Trials, Nya’s repressed memories surface, revealing a new enemy—one from inside the consulate walls—and a traitorous alliance on the horizon that could irrevocably change the course of history.

Since before the Bronze Age, the Society has managed to safeguard humanity from itself … until now.

My Review

The Scythian Trials is a mixture of Genres twisted perfectly together to create an intense story of fantasy, dystopia, and ancient cultures.
Nya is the image of what an amazon warrior should be. She has been training for years, to win the Trials to go on to combat for her true mate that is equal to her as per customs. However, because of a tragic event that happened to her while she was younger and before she attended the academy, she has suppressed her memories and can't be touched.
She feels to make her parents proud, she should do her best to win, but since she can't stand human contact, she really just wants to run away. However, triggers start unleashing memories that she can't run from, and she must solve the puzzle pieces to be able to accomplish her revenge.
Fast action and gore...deceit and corruption...makes this a thrilling read full of ancient traditions that is hiding among the real world. I found that concept mind blowing as the two worlds mingle. Strong characters, binding loyalties, and hidden secrets grabs your imagination as Nya's horrid experience is revealed....and her win to overcome and conquer.

WOW...it was a good read for sure and I highly recommend it.
