Daughter of Ruin

A woman who has meted out the vengeance of the Furies all her life must fight for her own fate in this vicious and epic sequel to Daughter of Crows.

Mollandra Plight knows the true nature of the Academy of Kindness, which hones young girls into weapons of retribution in the image of the Furies. It is a crucible in an endless cycle of crime and punishment, guilt and revenge. Mollandra has been both victim and victimizer: too strong to break, but not strong enough to escape.

Now Mollandra has crossed death’s river, seeking peace, ready to face judgement. But the monster who is her mother has pursued her even here, and the fate of her youngest child still hangs in the balance. Perhaps Mollandra has already been judged as wicked and denied her rest. Certainly, she is not done fighting.

If she wants to save her daughter, Mollandra must look to the brutal lessons of her past. And as any graduate of the Academy knows: nothing can be forgotten. Nothing forgiven.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.
