Summary from Amazon:
Before the time of the great pyramids, there was a place like none other, a city of glass and metal rising from the depths of the ocean. Shrouded in mist, the island of Hy-Brasil and its capital Atlantis lay hidden from the rest of the world by its people, a race of long lived, interstellar nomads.
What secrets would you keep to save your kingdom? On the Queen’s deathbed, the sonless King Aldric is force into a promise to allow his five daughters to marry for love. A promise he wished he had never made, and one he will have to break to save the kingdom.
The youngest of five daughters, Jael, spent most of her time at her father’s side learning to run a kingdom. Believed to be the King’s favorite, Jael is shocked when he betroths her to a longtime friend of his, Prince Sarik of Hy-Brasil. Soon she will learn that world is full of secrets and one of them is her very own birth. Will the secret that bonds her to Sarik be the ultimate downfall of a kingdom?

Review:
I really enjoyed this book. It has sci-fi, fantasy and romance, what more could you want! You get to know the characters really well. You also learn about some of the minor characters too. All the stories tie in together so you get the whole picture. They are all likable and fun to read about. I really loved Jael; she is responsible and strong (and indepenedent!). I also loved Starik! He was charming and sometimes sweet.
There are so many twists to the story. The whole time I was wondering what Jael was and what she could do. I'm glad that we got to learn about her and her powers with her. I was also trying to guess who was the mastermind behind Dugun. I never would have guessed who it ended up being! I couldn’t stand Gugun, I just wanted to bash him on the head with something (expescially when he attacked Tam)!
I wished there was more about the romance and how it grew between Jael and Starik.
I give it 4/5 stars!
