| Summary: | "Everything I look for in a fantasy." -- George R. R. Martin<br> <br> <br> <br> All paths lead to war. . . <br> <br> <br> <br> Marcus' hero days are behind him. He knows too well that even the smallest war still means somebody's death. When his men are impressed into a doomed army, staying out of a battle he wants no part of requires some unorthodox steps.<br> <br> <br> <br> Cithrin is an orphan, ward of a banking house. Her job is to smuggle a nation's wealth across a war zone, hiding the gold from both sides. She knows the secret life of commerce like a second language, but the strategies of trade will not defend her from swords.<br> <br> <br> <br> Geder, sole scion of a noble house, has more interest in philosophy than in swordplay. A poor excuse for a soldier, he is a pawn in these games. No one can predict what he will become.<br> <br> <br> <br> Falling pebbles can start a landslide. A spat between the Free Cities and the Severed Throne is spiraling out of control. A new player rises from the depths of history, fanning the flames that will sweep the entire region onto The Dragon's Path -- the path to war.<br> <br> <br> <br> The Dagger and the Coin <br> <br> The Dragon's Path<br> <br> The King's Blood<br> <br> The Tyrant's Law<br> <br> The Widow's House<br> <br> The Spider's War <br> <br> |
