Book One of the Sovereigns of the Underworld Series by Nyah Evergold
Beneath the surface of our world lies another an ancient, hidden realm where six Black tribes hold dominion over magic, power, and destiny. Once a utopian society, the underworld has been fractured by betrayal, greed, and near-genocide. Its balance was lost when the ruling Eugoldian Nation fell, leaving the land cursed and vulnerable to exploitation from the surface and sky worlds.
Aliyah knows nothing of this. On the surface (Earth/United States), she is a young woman battling trauma, heartbreak, and betrayal. But when her life spirals after a violent invasion, she is guided by a mysterious local spiritualist. Estella, a mysterious mentor who reveals that Aliyah’s bloodline ties her to Glendora, a tribe of divine women once revered for their healing and wisdom. As Aliyah learns to heal herself, she is pulled deeper into the truth of who she is a vessel of ancestral power, a chosen one with a significant role of helping restore balance to the underworld.
But destiny is never without cost. Shadows of past wars stir, and dangerous alliances threaten to unravel what remains of the tribes. The fallen are rising, and Aliyah must decide if she will embrace her divine inheritance or remain broken by the scars of her human life.
A Fallen Goddess is a sweeping Afro-futuristic fantasy blending ancestral magic, divine feminine power, and a love story that transcends realms. This is the beginning of a saga that reimagines what it means to return home to yourself and to your people.
