N. K. Jemisin - The Shadowed Sun (Dreamblood #2, epub) [j_ray]

Gujaareh, the city of dreams, suffers under the imperial rule of the
Kisuati Protectorate. A city where the only law was peace now knows
violence and oppression. And nightmares: a mysterious and deadly plague
haunts the citizens of Gujaareh, dooming the infected to die screaming
in their sleep. Trapped between dark dreams and cruel overlords, the
people yearn to rise up -- but Gujaareh has known peace for too long.

Someone must show them the way.

Hope lies with two outcasts: the first woman ever allowed to join the
dream goddess' priesthood and an exiled prince who longs to reclaim his
birthright. Together, they must resist the Kisuati occupation and
uncover the source of the killing dreams... before Gujaareh is lost
forever.
