Princess of Blood

Princess of Blood is the second spellbinding book in the Servant of Earth series. Surviving the trials may have saved Kenna's life - but in the court of the Fae, there are far worse things than death...
Kenna Heron is best known in her village for being a little wild - some say "half feral" - but she'll need every ounce of that ferocity to survive captivity in the cruel Fae court.
Trapped as a servant in the faeries' underground kingdom of Mistei, Kenna must help her new mistress undertake six deadly trials, one for each branch of magic: Fire, Earth, Light, Void, Illusion, and Blood. If she succeeds, her mistress will gain immortality and become the heir to Earth House. If she doesn't, the punishment is death - for both mistress and servant.
With no ally but a sentient dagger of mysterious origins, Kenna must face monsters, magic, and grueling physical tests. But worse dangers wait underground, and soon Kenna gets caught up in a secret rebellion against the inventively sadistic faerie king. When her feelings for the rebellion's leader turn passionate, Kenna must decide if she's willing to risk her life for a better world and a chance at happiness.
Surviving the trials and overthrowing a tyrant king will take cunning, courage, and an iron will... but even that may not be enough.
