A sequel to, and very much in the spirit of, the Inda tetralogy - so similar in tone and in the scrapes of youth and machinations of age that it felt a bit like a re-run to me. OTOH it also ended not so much with a cliff-hanger as with a "wait, what, it just stops?" (given that the next book is titled "Time of Daughters II" one gets the strong impression that this is in fact halfway though a book) so it may be premature to judge. Certainly it apperas to be Doing Things with Inda's legacy which may pay off further down the track. (

Book description

In a time of change and danger, peace sparks to war, and sons become daughters...

It’s nearly a century after the death of Inda, the unbeatable Marlovan commander.

Danet and Arrow, content in their arranged marriage, just want to live in peaceful obscurity and raise their family. But when a treaty sends them to the royal city to meet the heir to the throne, they discover that peace is fragile, old enemies have long memories, and what you want isn't always what you get.

By the time they learn that you can’t go back again, events ignite a conflagration that no one could have foreseen—except for the ghosts who walk the walls in the royal city.
