Are you looking for a fun, finish in a weekend, read?
Azreya's story grew from 3 ideas...
That she was a character with clairvoyant powers
Her name meant "powerful queen"
Her name, in some searches traced, back to Latin American origin
We've been so excited about the feedback from Azreya and I thought it might be more interesting for you to learn about this story directly from other readers.
"It is a mishmash of paranormal/fantasy, historical fiction, legend and mythology. With shamans, monsters and gods there is a little bit for every YA paranormal fantasy lover." 4.5* - Jenni, Goodreads
"I was so drawn into the book right from the start. Azreya is a compelling and compassionate character that shows strength and bravery. She is dedicated to the Aztec people and would do anything in her power to ensure they succeed and flourish. Her path is unique and full of unexpected challenges.
Wonderful all around."

More about Azreya, Aztec Priestess from the back cover....
For years, Azreya accepts her place as one cursed by the gods, but with foresight of an impending slaughter, she dares to attempt to reverse the Aztec people’s fate.
At the age of three, Azreya is placed in the care of a shaman, Nukpana, who promises to protect her. Servitude to the man who vowed to keep her dark side from emerging seemed a small price to pay until a special client visits. But Azreya’s inner compass clashes with Nukpana’s wishes and her rage boils over.
With the demon just under the surface, she has no choice but to flee, only to find her own family refuses to take her in. Still unable to stand by and witness her people’s demise, Azreya pursues a quest to enlighten them. She faces many challenges—not the least of which is the monster hiding under her own skin.
Can Azreya control her inner beast and convince her people to break from age-old patterns, or will the Aztecs be vanquished by the enemy?
Journey back in time to unlock the secrets of the Aztec.

"This is a rich story, detailed and complex, steeped in mythological history. The illustrations are absolutely magnificent and compliment the book entirely.
The story itself is such an interesting one to read. The author paints such a vivid picture that you can picture it all so clearly. I was so easily lost within the pages, consumed by the story unfolding."
5* - Kerry, Goodreads
"I found this story to be very interesting and quite intriguing. Azreya is a mythological story of a priestess who grows up to watch over her people. ... The writing keeps you wanting more because you find yourself waning to know what’s going to happen next as Azreya undergoes tests.
Well done, loved it!"
