| The Malar have defeated the Zebede people. Warrior God Dagen is presented with his prize, the Zebede princess Saarah.
Saarah is not happy about her new purpose in life, being the sex slave of the enemy. But she's determined not to disgrace her people. So she tries to accept her fate and goes willingly with Dagen. As they come to know each other, will they find a bond beyond slave and master? Or will Saarah remain just a slave of the enemy forever? War Prize has a futuristic setting. The details of the two groups of people were not abundant, but you get the general idea of how they are different from each other. You also learn of the reason for their battle and what is expected of the Zebede because of their defeat. It is all very imaginative. The characters are likeable and realistic. Their descriptions were well written and vivid. Saarah's personality was wonderful to read. She stays true to herself through all the changes in her situation. Dagen is also much more than just a Warrior God, and their journey is very graphic. The dialogue was good and matched their personalities. Their conversations were easy to follow, and I liked the fact that Saarah and Dagen did not play coy. They were very honest with each other. I thought War Prize was a very steamy book and enjoyed every minute of it!
