Guard your heart and go home or fall
for a stranger and perish.
Reiko is the immortal spirit of the storm. Seeking to unravel a reoccurring
dream that perplexes her, she visits the mortal realm during the Soul Festival
and boards a train to the historical district of Sunlit City. There, in the
imperial palace of old Nara, she finds no answers, only more questions as a
peculiar girl indulges her with a tale of a disgraced deity and a mortal
warlord.
Ayame has a bad temper. She slapped the Immortal Emperor’s sorceress, and her
punishment was to spend a decade on earth as a mortal-a task easier said than
done.
Nara is amidst its centuries long warring era, the age of the warlords. To
navigate this treacherous new world, Ayame befriends a wine-loving, trickster
fox spirit, and scrapes by as a servant in the household of one of the greater
clans. Toiling day and night, she’s made do for five years and dreams of the
day she can return home.
But war arrives. When death announces itself outside her door, she assumes the
identity of a noble and finds herself betrothed to the youngest son of an enemy
clan, his father a ruthless warlord. To live, Ayame must play her role, but she
soon finds herself dangerously drawn not to her intended husband, but to
the infamous warlord himself.
In the tumultuous world of a warring empire, trouble is always on the horizon.
Betrayals run deep within families and clans, and nothing is as it seems. All
Ayame wants is to survive her banishment and return home, yet she may risk it
all for a mortal man.
A vicious killer, twice her age, nothing is right about him, including his
insanely possessive concubine out to get Ayame. She knows it, but can she
control her temperament, or will she find herself at odds with yet another
court, this time a deadly one?
A slow burn dark fantasy, Remember Me is Book 1 of the Royal Diviner
Trilogy, and comes with content advisory for violence and intimate situations.
Why Should You Read This?
Brien Feathers’ “Remember Me” is a captivating journey that seamlessly blends elements of fantasy, mythology, and historical fiction into a rich tapestry of storytelling. Set against the backdrop of a warring empire in old Nara, the narrative intricately weaves together the fates of two remarkable characters: Reiko, the immortal spirit of the storm, and Ayame, a fiery mortal navigating a world of turmoil and deception.
At the heart of the story lies Reiko’s quest to unravel a mysterious dream, leading her to the mortal realm during the Soul Festival. Her journey takes her to Sunlit City’s historical district and the imperial palace of old Nara, where she encounters Ayame. Ayame, burdened with a decade-long punishment as a mortal for her fiery temper, finds herself entangled in the complex politics and treacherous alliances of the warring era.
Feathers masterfully crafts a tale of resilience, survival, and forbidden love amidst the chaos of war. Ayame’s journey from a defiant servant to a reluctant noble betrothed to a ruthless warlord is fraught with danger and intrigue. As she navigates the intricacies of court life, she grapples with her growing attraction to the enigmatic warlord, risking everything for a chance at freedom.
The characters in “Remember Me” are vividly drawn, each with their own motivations and desires that drive the narrative forward. Ayame’s fiery spirit and determination leap off the page, while the complexities of Reiko’s immortal existence add depth to the story. The supporting cast, including a mischievous fox spirit and a possessive concubine, further enrich the world-building and add layers of tension to the plot.
Feathers’ prose is lyrical and evocative, transporting readers to a world filled with swirling storms, ancient traditions, and palpable danger. The pacing is brisk, keeping the reader engaged from beginning to end, while the twists and turns of the plot keep them guessing until the final pages.
Overall, “Remember Me” is a captivating tale of love, betrayal, and self-discovery set against the backdrop of a vividly realized historical fantasy world. Brian Feathers has crafted a story that will linger in the minds of readers long after they turn the final page, making it a must-read for fans of immersive and intricately plotted fiction.
