Farilane
Book 2 of the The Rise and Fall series
Farilane is an unwanted imperial twin who turns exclusion from succession into a life as scholar, adventurer, and hunter of forbidden books. Her search for the lost Book of Brin leads to discoveries capable of changing the empire's understanding of its origins and future. Even the legendary Teshlor knights cannot protect her from the moral cost of knowledge that powerful forces have intentionally buried. Intelligent and heartbreaking, this novel suits readers who enjoy bookish heroines, archaeological quests, hidden history, and tragedies shaped by the terrible distance between what one person deserves and what a world may need.
