Only a pact with Death can give Scarlet a second chance at life-and the power she needs to save the last of her family. ¿¿ When sixteen-year-old Scarlet is nearly killed by a tyrannical god, the cost of survival is to bind herself in service of the goddess Death. Though now obligated to do Death's bidding, Scarlet also gains what she's always desired-someone to teach her magic. With her newfound strength as a fire mage, she must rescue her mother from the god who nearly took her life, Riordan, before he's able to extract the secret her mother holds: the key to unfathomable power and the ability to take down the other gods of Quintras. But slaying a god is no simple task, and Scarlet can't do it alone. When she finds kinship with a reluctant seer and joins forces with a rebel faction that shares her quest to destroy the god that terrorizes his own kingdom, she thinks they have a chance of overcoming the impossible odds. That is, if her bond to Death doesn't hold her back... How can Scarlet win her freedom in time to save her mother-and the world-from Riordan's grasp? Death's Emissary is the first installment of a compelling YA fantasy trilogy that features mortals battling gods for control over the fate of the world. A coming-of-age story with a headstrong heroine, this series tells the tale of the sacrifices that must be made to protect what-and who-you love.
