Ouroboros was the first of the 'new' Fires of Fate stories. My writing had started to mature, and as far as jumping into the series and backstory goes, this is a good place to start. Alisha was the first character I felt I really understood, and David the first villain I had any sympathy for.
Summary: She was cursed with memory that stretched beyond the grave. Lost without hope, and weighed down with the guilt of the death she had caused.
Alisha thought herself alone, and indeed, prided herself of her aloofness and independence. But then Circle Daybreak sent her to Ryars Valley, where she found her memories lived again. But she was being hunted by hatred, by a man who wanted what she could no longer give.
Alisha thought she had seen it all. She was wrong.
