Champion of Fate

Reach for this book if your teenager is struggling with the pressure of a pre-determined path or feels like their personal desires are at odds with their family or community expectations. It is a powerful story for young people navigating the transition from following rules to defining their own moral compass. The story follows Reed, a young woman raised by legendary female warriors, who must decide if she will accept her role as a secondary player in someone else's legend or fight for her own agency. At its heart, this is a deep dive into the themes of duty, autonomy, and the complex bonds of sisterhood.
