The Dark Empress by Joseph S Samaniego

In a world shadowed by an ancient darkness, a mage rushes to oppose an oncoming evil, facing not only her ancestral line but the fears within her own heart. The world is in danger as Fatima, a talented necromancer from an ancient order, and Cailin face the resurrected ancestor from Fatima’s bloodline with the goal of sinking the world into a revenge fueled abyss. Now, as betrayal echoes through the halls of the order, neither mage knows who to trust. It is a race against destiny that Fatima and Cailin find themselves in. Fighting the physical manifestations of an undead witch, her children, and followers, all the while fighting the demons within themselves. Does Fatima have what it takes to overcome her past and her family’s past?
