Playing dead is safe... but Sumi's never been safe.

Somehow, impossibly, Sumi and Jay have escaped the Temple of the Damned and landed in the Rest Third with Jay's family. Of course the dark goddess Maldita never gives up what is hers, and Sumi is no exception.

The damned are hunting her. Sumi gives up her magic to hide, but her sons are full of mischief and their own growing magic, and only Sumi can teach them, encourage control over power, quiet over flash, hidden over found.

Pretending to be no one and nothing is all the protection she has. If the blessed or the damned find her, they'll drag Sumi back to their temple. If the neighbors discover who she is, they'll give her up themselves. If the demon hunters find Sumi, they'll kill her— again.

If Sumi can avoid the damned and the blessed, avoid the curious, avoid the murderous, she and Jay might have a chance...

But who is the trap baited for?
It's up to Tal to find out, while she and her best friend take on a heist that will foil them at every turn... as long as it doesn't get them killed.

Love and magic might change the world, but will that change be good for anyone?
Sumi has served in the City of Temples for so long she's almost forgotten her own name; she even thinks of herself as just the high priestess of the dark goddess Maldita. Sumi trains those who possess magic, sells their talents, collects their tithes. When the occasion demands it, she even offers up her own body as a vessel, so Maldita can preside over Her congregation in person.
But now people from the neighboring city to the west are sneaking in to preach their own religion— and they say Maldita is not the goddess She seems, but merely a demon to be slain.
In contrast to their hate, a new temple servitor speaks of neighbors, community, and a family that loves him. His stories of life outside the temples' influence might be true. Worse... he treats Sumi like a personinstead of a vessel, and her heart softens.
Threats loom from without and within the dark temple. Unable to...]]> Sun, 09 Jan 2022 00:15:10 +0200 https://lgbt.library.land/barbara-lund/121570-ship_desolate_doomsday_ship_book_1.html https://lgbt.library.land/barbara-lund/121570-ship_desolate_doomsday_ship_book_1.html
