"Countries do not fight each other. Men fight each other. And they only fight so that they can stop fighting and go home. It is the most horrific irony in the world." The once-peaceful nations of Mitoch and Fairgos are locked in a bitter war. Lady Aurora, however, has known only quiet privilege for her 21 years inside the walls of the Cavalcata manor house. As the educated, eavesdropping daughter of the Fairgosian Royal War Master, she is confident she knows more than most . . . except when the promised Fairgosian victory will bring her father home for good. But when the currents of war sweep her, half-dead, to the shores of brutal, backwards Mitoch, Aurora will unlearn everything she thought she knew-about the war, her country, her father, and herself-and discover what is really worth fighting for. The War Master's Daughter tells the story of battles we all fight-those we wage with each other and also within ourselves.
