On the islands of Hans Lollik, Sigourney Rose was the only survivor when her family was massacred by the colonizers. When the childless king of the islands declares he will choose his successor from amongst eligible noble families, Sigourney is ready to exact her revenge.

But someone is killing off the ruling families to clear a path to the throne. And as the bodies pile up and all eyes regard her with suspicion, Sigourney must find allies among her prey and the murderer among her peers... lest she become the next victim.

Praise for Queen of the Conquered:

A storm of a novel as epic as Alexandre Dumas's The Count of Monte Cristo. --Tochi Onyebuchi, author of Beasts Made of Night

The book's absorbing setting, captivating lead, and relevant themes of race and class complement each other with alternating delicacy and savagery.--NPR Books

Callender's first adult novel draws race relations, conquest, magic, and politics into an imaginative, layered story that will keep readers twisting until the end. --Library Journal
