The Annals of Orme: Book One

Kirin, a talented but naïve priestess-in-training, has begun to experience nightmares, something that is supposed to be impossible for women born under a high house of orme. Fearing judgment from the clergy and her peers, she withdraws, only to be called to meet with the holy prophetess, who communicates directly with the long-departed goddess through her dreams.

Kirin soon discovers that secrets abound within the noble caste, and her religion is not entirely what it seems. Nightmares begin to spread, and the 900-year-old world theocracy is thrown into chaos as the long dead Dread God reemerges from the shadows to free his master and claim a royal bride.
