What this book is about
In a world of Blood and darkness where power is measured by Jewels, Saetan SaDiablo awaits the witch of legend. Daemon Sadi—a pleasure slave and the most dangerous Black Jewel wielder alive—finds her first. So does Lucivar Yaslana. Jaenelle Angelline is a child who is simultaneously innocent and more powerful than any living being—and she is in terrible danger. Daughter of the Blood is deeply dark, psychologically complex, and unlike anything else in fantasy.
