Tarnished Relics

Justice is good. Revenge is power.

Amiir, one of the first born, seeks to dethrone his father Isteni, the creator. An ancient prophecy of Ouroby says there is a woman destined to bring Amiir victory. He has searched eons, waiting for a female seer born when the lorkiss and the swan are high in the night sky.

Attoria sees the future when she dreams. A rare gift in Halgrond, even rarer for a woman. When Attoria’s parents are cursed with a deadly illness, she is determined to get her revenge. But first, she needs to discover who is responsible.

As Attoria hunts for answers, she is pursued by zealots of Isteni that want to prevent the prophecy. And the only sure way to do that, is to kill her.

Is she the one Amiir has waited for? Can she evade those intent on stopping the prophecy? And what will be the cost for her revenge?

Goodreads Reviews

A breathtaking, magical journey you won’t forget.

Tarnished Relics is an incredible story that sweeps you into a world of magic, danger, and destiny. A.J. Titter crafts a rich, imaginative realm filled with unexpected twists, powerful themes, and unforgettable characters. The world-building is absolutely phenomenal—layered, immersive, and full of wonder.

Attoria and Ludolf truly stole my heart. Watching their bond grow and their individual journeys unfold was one of the highlights of the book. Their character development is beautifully written, showing real strength, vulnerability, and transformation.

If you’re looking for an epic fantasy filled with heart, magic, and a touch of the divine, I can’t recommend this book enough. A.J. Titter has written something truly special, and I can’t wait to see what comes next in this series.

This book hits hard with divine politics, magic, rebellion, and a seer who’s trying to take control of a destiny that’s been forced on her. The themes of power, choice, and survival? Chef’s kiss.

If you love stories with ancient gods, rare magic, fierce women, and stakes that feel world-ending (because they are), Tarnished Relics will be your next obsession. I already need book two.

Well paced and well written. The story flows really well and the plot is really interesting. There are a few places where it could have been fleshed out a little more leaving them feeling a little rushed. Did that stop me enjoying the story? Nope. Will I be reading any further books in the series or from the same author? Absolutely!

Tarnished Relics completely stole my weekend (and my sleep), and I have zero regrets. I was hooked from the very first chapter. Attoria is the kind of heroine I LOVE—smart, determined, and thrown into way more chaos than she ever asked for.

The world is rich and magical without being confusing, and the prophecy storyline?? So addictive. I found myself rooting for Attoria every step of the way, and now I’m lowkey obsessed with Ludolf. The tension, the danger, the secrets—I ate it all up.

Fantasy lovers, this book delivers. A must-read if you’re into prophecies, gods, and fierce female leads.
