From #1 Bestselling author Morgan Rice comes a sweeping new fantasy series.
17 year old Ceres, a beautiful, poor girl in the Empire city of Delos, lives the harsh and unforgiving life of a commoner. By day she delivers her father’s forged weapons to the palace training grounds, and by night she secretly trains with them, yearning to be a warrior in a land where girls are forbidden to fight. With her pending sale to slavehood, she is desperate.
18 year old Prince Thanos despises everything his royal family stands for. He abhors their harsh treatment of the masses, especially the brutal competition—The Killings—that lies at the heart of the city. He yearns to break free from the restraints of his upbringing, yet he, a fine warrior, sees no way out.
When Ceres stuns the court with her hidden powers, she finds herself wrongfully imprisoned, doomed to an even worse life than she could imagine. Thanos, smitten, must choose if he will risk it all for her. Yet, thrust into a world of duplicity and deadly secrets, Ceres quickly learns there are those who rule, and those who are their pawns. And that sometimes, being chosen is the worst that can happen.
SLAVE, WARRIOR, QUEEN tells an epic tale of tragic love, vengeance, betrayal, ambition, and destiny. Filled with unforgettable characters and heart-pounding action, it transports us into a world we will never forget, and makes us fall in love with fantasy all over again.
Book #2–ROGUE, PRISONER, PRINCESS–is also available!

It was a great read with good characters and interesting twists to the story.
There was such potential in the story line, but it needed a little more editing. The transitions between scenes and characters was choppy. I liked the content, but the story felt rushed.
Excellent couldn’t stop reading.
This is another of her children’s adventure novels that we enjoy.
It was trite and boring.
I loved it I found it difficult to put down.
The premise was good. I wanted to like it but it was amateurish. There were so many inconsistencies and knowledge jumps. In one part this character says (paraphrasing here) Hey! The main character says How does she know my name? I re-read it several times. The first never said her name, so why is the MC wondering how she knows it. There’s no build up of plot. It’s like a dot to dot. Plot point to plot point to plot point. Characters just know things. Like I said the premise is good I wanted to like it but it needs fleshing out and the pacing needs work.
Loved getting into the story. Good twist and turns. Didn’t like the cliffhanger, having to wait for the next book.
