The oleander sword / by Suri, Tasha,author.;
"The prophecy of the nameless god-the words that declared Malini the rightful empress of Parijatdvipa-has proven a blessing and curse. She is determined to claim the throne that fate offered her. But even with the strength of the rage in her heart and the army of loyal men by her side, deposing her brother is going to be a brutal and bloody fight. The power of the deathless waters flows through Priya's blood. Thrice born priestess, Elder of Ahiranya, Priya's dream is to see her country rid of the rot that plagues it: both Parijatdvipa's poisonous rule, and the blooming sickness that is slowly spreading through all living things. But she doesn't yet understand the truth of the magic she carries. Their chosen paths once pulled them apart. But Malini and Priya's souls remain as entwined as their destinies. And they soon realize that coming together is the only way to save their kingdom from those who would rather see it burn-even if it will cost them"--

Temple of no god / by Long, H. M.(Hannah M.),author.;
After a brutal war between the gods, Hessa - High Priestess of the Eangen - has brokered a fragile alliance between warring tribes and bought peace to her home.

Hessa knows she cannot let this chance pass by - she must intervene, to protect her peoples' hard-won future. With the peace she has sacrificed so much for at stake, Hessa must lead an army of Algatt and Eangen warriors into the heart of enemy territory.

With enemies on every side and the fragile peace beginning to waver, Hessa must decide who to place on the throne - no matter what it may cost her.
