Want to know how Lies come about?
Googling weird shit, simple as that.
I found a four hundred-year-old military near-cult that recruited new members via what they called a ‘blood tax’. Christian boys (always pretty ones in my imagination!) were taken in war tribute, converted to Islam, and served in ortas, regiments of the Ottoman empire.
Emma's Brain: What if a secret orta survived into modern times and continued the traditional blood tax?
With a whoop, a yell, and a yeah baby yeah, I disappeared down a rabbit hole of centuries-old military traditions, brainwashing, MMA fighting, mental illness, abuse, hot men, virtuoso violin playing, and a clash of iron wills. Did I mention the hot men?
Available in ebook, paperback, and AUDIO.
Jonathan Waters does a MAGNIFICENT job with all the different voices, it has to be heard to be believed!
PS nope, I didn't put them in THAT category on Audible. That's down to the numbnuts at Audible who decide categories by looking at the tags readers on Goodreads added and a couple of ancient m/f audiobooks I had no input into other than the manuscript.
Warning: Don't listen to the m/f, they suck BIG TIME
