A weaver's daughter turned soldier and her trusty horse are swept up in the climactic siege of the civil war tearing their frontier kingdom apart. For young Zshurii, upholding her family's honor is more crucial than victory. And keeping her sisters in arms alive means more than the survival of her beloved realm. On the floodplain and bulwarks outside the towering city of Danuh, the rebel host of the Prophet-King clashes with the judges' army. Legendary heroes and earthly nightmares abound. But just as real are the peril, pain, faith, and fears of the common folk in the saddle and on the rampart. At the crux of a bitter epoch, Zshurii is put to the test like never before. She clings to duty and courage, but friendship and hope may be the keys to preserving her soul on the blood-sodden field of battle.

Daughters of the Rising Sun is a standalone tale of ancient fantasy warfare from the Eastsong cycle of the Vaporous Realms story-world.
