SOLO MEDALIST WINNER

Issaura’s Claws

by Katharine E. Wibell

In Elysia, tensions run high between two races: ruling humans and subjugated Theriomorphs who can transform into animal form. Although both dislike and distrust each other, they are forced to unite when Raiders, brutal seafaring invaders, attack the kingdom. There is only one chance to defeat them. An army must be raised and trained. An army where each human will be paired with a Theriomorph partner and fight as one to defeat their common enemy. When Lluava, a seventeen-year-old shapeshifter, is drafted, her dark destiny is set in motion. She struggles to control her magnificent animal form—a white tigress, endures intense physical training, must earn the respect of her peers, and confronts unexpected adversaries. With the onset of war, another plot unfolds; friends are actually enemies and the crown prince’s life is at risk. Death and destruction are on the horizon and time is running out.
