Empress: (Godspeaker S.)

When a scrawny, unwanted child - so lowly that she does not even have a name - is sold into slavery, a chain of events is set in motion that will have a profound impact on all the civilised world. Naming herself 'Hekat' (after a slaver's observation that she is quite the hellcat), the girl is taken in chains to Mijak's largest city, but makes a bargain with a ruthless god and escapes her captors. After she saves the life of a warlord, he takes her in and teaches her ways that an orphan might use to prosper in an uncaring world. When the warlord's family dies, the way becomes clear for Hekat to carve a dynasty out of infidelity and betrayal...

Empress

Cracking read, the author keeps you on the edge of your seat and you just want to keep on reading!
Great characters introduced, ranging from strong to psycotic! but who work really well together.
Bear in mind there is plenty of strong language and gallons of blood and gore (although in character), if animal sacrifice disgusts you, then this book is not for you.
Can't wait for part 2.
