By Team Fierce Reads
With a detailed, supernaturally-charged setting and topical themes of patriarchal power and female strength, Lizz Huerta's The Lost Dreamer brings an ancient world to life, mirroring the challenges of our modern one. Take a first look at this amazing debut novel with an exclusive excerpt!
ABOUT THE BOOK
A stunning YA fantasy inspired by ancient Mesoamerica, this gripping debut introduces us to a lineage of seers defiantly resisting the shifting patriarchal state that would see them destroyedโperfect for fans of Tomi Adeyemi and Sabaa Tahir.
Indir is a Dreamer, descended from a long line of seers; able to see beyond reality, she carries the rare gift of Dreaming truth. But when the beloved king dies, his son has no respect for this time-honored tradition. King Alcan wants an opportunity to bring the Dreamers to a permanent endโan opportunity Indir will give him if he discovers the two secrets she is struggling to keep. As violent change shakes Indirโs world to its core, she is forced to make an impossible choice: fight for her home or fight to survive.
Saya is a seer, but not a Dreamerโshe has never been formally trained. Her mother exploits her daughterโs gift, passing it off as her own as they travel from village to village, never staying in one place too long. Almost as if theyโre running from something. Almost as if theyโre being hunted. When Saya loses the necklace sheโs worn since birth, she discovers that seeing isnโt her only giftโand begins to suspect that everything she knows about her life has been a carefully-constructed lie. As she comes to distrust the only family sheโs ever known, Saya will do what sheโs never done before, go where sheโs never been, and risk it all in the search of answers.
