Enochian Memories by K.M. Daniels Nicola di Celestina is the latest in a long line of knights sent on an impossible mission: rescue a mysterious prisoner from the impenetrable fortress of Kilkeep. In all of Lutegel, there is no more feared prison. Inside, Nicola expects to find the person that’s been sending the visions guiding the knights to Kilkeep to rescue the prisoner. Instead, Nicola finds Orobas. Her horns have been shorn off and her memory wiped, and she only knows two things: she needs to recover her horns, and she’s innocent of her supposed crimes. With more mysteries than they can count on their hands, Nicola and Orobas have to turn to new and old allies to gain the upper hand on the hardline Kilkaun theocracy. They believe that Orobas is a demon, banished from sight by their glorious gods, and will stop at nothing to ensure she returns to her cell and her allies are slain. But the bases of Orobas' horns are just the tip of the true story of Lutegel, hidden for years by those willing and unwilling. Now, plagued by her own visions of the past, Orobas finds herself spiraling down a journey of self-discovery and hidden secrets. In the end, what matters most will be the fundamental truth that betrays the dark secret of Lutegel's past: the gods lie. With forces coming in on all sides, a final question faces Orobas and Nicola: who can be believed? |
