ⓘ About Frankie Diane Mallis
When Frankie’s not busy teaching or writing, she practices belly dance (she was a pro-dancer for more than a decade) and yoga (has her 200 hour yoga certification) and can be typically found baking some gluten free desserts. “Solstice of the Drowned Empire” is a prequel story in the “Drowned Empire” series and was released in 2022. Lord Rhyan Hart (Heir Apparent to the Arkasva, High Lord of Glemaria, Imperator to the North) hates everything about his title. Its pretentiousness, its length, and the fact that it links him directly to his dad, the violent sadistic man that he hates more than anybody else in Lumeria. The very last thing that Rhyan wants to do is spend the summer before his Revelation Ceremony traveling around the Empire with him for a state visit.
