Description
The fifth book in The Song of the Shattered Sands series—an epic fantasy with a desert setting, filled with rich worldbuilding and pulse-pounding action.
The reign of the kings of Sharakhai has been broken. The blood mage, Queen Meryam, now rules the city along with the descendants of the fabled twelve kings.
In the desert, Çeda has succeeded in breaking the asirim's curse. Those twisted creatures are now free, but their freedom comes at great cost. Nalamae lies dead, slain in battle with her sister goddess. Çeda, knowing Nalamae would have been reborn on her death, sets out on a quest to find her.
The trail leads Çeda to Sharakhai where, unbeknownst to her, others are searching for Nalamae as well. Çeda's quest to find her forces her into a terrible decision: work with the kings or risk Sharakhai's destruction.
Whatever her decision, it won't be easy. Sharakhai is once more threatened by the forces of the neighboring kingdoms. As the powers of the desert vie for control of the city, Çeda, her allies, and the fallen kings must navigate the shifting fates before the city they love falls to the schemes of the desert gods.

        June 15, 2020
        The grand fifth volume in Beaulieu’s sweeping The Song of Shattered Sands series (Beneath the Twisted Trees) sees foreign armies, desert tribes, blood mages, fallen kings, and young gods fighting to control the fate of the desert city of Sharakhai. Çeda and her small band of women warriors seek to restore the newly awakened goddess Nalamae to her full divine power. Elsewhere in the Great Shangazi Desert, the deposed king Ihsan reunites with three other erstwhile monarchs, hoping to return to power by following the prophecies of the dead king Yusam. Meanwhile, the forces of Mirea and Malasan regroup to threaten Sharakhai once more. And within the city, Queen Meryam and her blood mage allies perform an extended sacrifice as part of a bargain with the goddess Tulathan. Beaulieu’s tapestry of vengeance, power, love, and hope is complex, but, by including a summary of previous volumes and a glossary of terms and characters at the start of the book, he succeeds in making this fifth volume accessible, even to new readers. Beaulieu’s excellent epic fantasy includes enough magic, battles, and heroes to satisfy any genre fan. Agent: Russell Galen, Scovil Galen Ghosh Literary.
