There is an ancient tale of a powerful woman who demands a tribute of young men to serve her at court and in bed. But that tale has never been told like this.
When Sofian woke up this morning, he was the heir to a land blessed by prosperity and science granted by the Empress. Though he will never please his father, he will rule Mazinara after the old man dies.
Before nightfall, the Empress will claim him as a consort, summoning him to her court beyond the stars where he will live out the remainder of his life surrounded by strange people with stranger customs.
Sofian has one last chance for love with the only other person who can understand him—one of the Empress's discarded consorts, a man so broken he can't remember how to feel. Will they learn the difference between need and love before time runs out for them?
"In THE MEMORIAL GARDEN, Ms. Burka twists the old fable and makes it her own. She vividly evokes the semi-tribal world of Mazinara, where a man's braids are his pride; the regimented society aboard the spaceship; the elegance, wealth and beauty of the Firdoos court; the incendiary glory of the Empress; and the twisted attraction Sofian feels for Numair."
--Lisabet Sarai, ERWA
