Publisher's summary
An empire can have only one ruler.
Amira Brindonu Fanduillion has been crowned alongside her husband, the rightful heir to the Erymayan Empire. They have survived assassination attempts and schemes within the palace to retake the throne and begin their reign. It appears to be their moment of victory, until reports of a rampaging demon horde reach them from the countryside.
Vesha, Daindreth's mother and the former empress, has made a deal with a fallen goddess for the empire's protection. But no one wins a deal with demons and as the cythraul spiral out of Vesha's control, she grows more desperate by the day. She hopes that by freeing the fallen goddess, order will be restored—but at what cost?
Alongside, Thadred and their Istovari allies, Amira and Daindreth set out to stop Vesha and her demon horde, hoping they will be able to reach her in time. The stakes have never been higher and more than just the throne could be lost.
As the very gods vie for control of the continent, Amira and Daindreth's work to bring peace might be over before it has begun.
Daindreth's Empress is the thrilling conclusion to the Fantasy Romance Daindreth's Assassin series.

Story
Magic has two immutable rules - every spell requires a sacrifice, and every curse can be broken. Amira Brindonu is a sorceress turned assassin, bound in a curse that forces her to obey her father, even to the point of high treason. When he orders her to kill the future emperor, she fails, but discovers a secret that could bring the whole of the empire to its knees. The archduke is stricken by a curse that could sentence him and his people to damnation, but Amira could be the only key to breaking it.

After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

The Storytelling!
I love the storytelling. This is well written and has strong Characters.
While I enjoy Elisabeth Wheatley’s narration, I wish she had opted for a Male Voice actor for Thad. The nasal voice given to him makes him seem like a angsty teenager (sorry) and Thad is so much better written than that.
