The Tomb That Breathed. The Godless Accord, #1

THE GODLESS ACCORD - Book OneTHE TOMB THAT BREATHEDBy The AcademyBOOK DESCRIPTIONThe tomb was not supposed to be breathing. Then again, nothing about this mission was supposed to happen. Seren Ashvale is the best Remnant hunter the Accord has - seven years, forty-three sites, no casualties. When the most powerful institution in Vaelthar sends her alone into the Ashen Reach to retrieve a priority acquisition they refuse to describe, she assumes she has seen everything a dead god's ruins can produce.
She has not. The Tomb of Aelvar the Unnamed has been breathing for three hundred years. The reason is a man named Cairan Voss - a cartographer who said yes to a god who saw the end of the world coming, and who has been waiting in the dark ever since for someone qualified to open the door. What Cairan carries inside him is not power. It is testimony. The complete and suppressed truth of why the gods died, who caused it, and what has been quietly rebuilding itself in the ruins ever since.
And the institution that sent Seren to find him already knows he exists. Set in the wholly original world of Vaelthar - a civilization three centuries past the death of its gods, running on borrowed divine power and a history that has been carefully rewritten - The Tomb That Breathed is a slow-burn fantasy romance about a woman who has spent seven years delivering things to people who do not deserve them, and the moment she decides to stop.
