Her city doesn't want a warrior like her. Now, two worlds will die without her. Seventeen-year-old Sakima is an outcast. In her advanced, tradition-bound city, girls don't fight. But Sakima dreams of battle. When her own malevolent brother-in-law unleashes a nightmare beast and drags her little sister through a shimmering portal, Sakima's forbidden skills are all that stand against total annihilation. Armed with her bow and a mysterious alien artifact that only she can control, Sakima hurls herself into the chaotic unknown-our New York City. Here, she must team up with street-smart city kids to hunt down the monster and the man who controls it. But the enemy is evolving, the artifact's power is a dangerous enigma, and the path to her sister leads through dimensions straight out of legend. Ancient prophecies stir. The fate of two Earths hangs by a thread. Sakima must become the hero she was never allowed to be. Can she master the power at her fingertips and save her sister before reality itself is torn apart? If you crave the fierce heroines of The Hunger Games, the thrilling portal-jumping action of Shadow and Bone, and the epic, world-bending imagination of R.F. Kuang's The Poppy War, you'll be hooked by City At My Feet. Dive into a universe where ancient spirits clash with futuristic tech, and one young woman's courage will change everything.
