Blurb
A woman demands vengeance. A soldier questions loyalty. A
prince seeks justice.
After surviving her fight in the Aikhtiar tournament, Serein picks up
her blades again—this time as King Sethos’ assassin. With each enemy
she hunts down, she wades deeper into a world of death and secrets,
faking the deaths of those who could be potential allies and help
Rameses overthrow his father. Lurking around every corner is the
threat of discovery and Xansas’ shadow.
Beneath the mask of loyalty, Serein plots against Xansas and Sethos
while old magic stirs and hidden forces make their move. She and Uriah
follow leads to track down the leader of the Bone Vipers, who evades
capture. Rameses faces an impending betrothal that forces him to
decide when to make a move against his father. Rebel attacks increase,
striking at the heart of the city. With each dangerous mission Serein
undertakes, more pieces of the Malik’s plans are revealed, but with
them come more questions.
Success balances on a knife’s edge, and one wrong move could destroy
Serein’s chance to kill her enemies and finally be free.

About the Author

When I was younger, I thought I had my author name figured out. High school me thought it was super cool and that the series I was writing would be a best seller. Neither of those things worked out and here I am now with a cool, sophisticated name. My real name is Katie, and I currently live in Powder Springs, Georgia. I have been writing since I was young and have been an avid reader since kindergarten. The afore-mentioned book series was one I started in middle school, and I had completed six lengthy books by high school that I was proud of until I really started diving into the craft of writing and realized that it wasn’t a great story. While they just take up space on my computer, never to be opened, I’m grateful for them because that was really where I got into writing stories. Fantasy, sci-fi, and action genres are my favorite, but I pretty much read anything with a good plot and characters I can care about. I’m a huge nerd so anything Star Wars or Lord of The Rings related, I’m there. Much of that has shaped how I write stories and characters, although some days I do spend more time imagining worlds than I do writing them. When I’m not writing, I’m usually drawing nerdy things to make into stickers for my Etsy shop (redheadcreates). I have too many art and craft projects that I’ve started but never finished (yet), along with too many hobbies and not enough time for them all. I work a couple of different jobs currently because I like to expand my skills in different ways. My main job is at an equine vet’s office as the office manager, and in my free time, I’m a freelance editor because I enjoy helping others with their own stories. My writing buddies are my cats and my plants. I have too many story ideas and not enough time to write them all down. I’m also a Spfbo 9, Indie Ink Award, Next Generation Indie Book Awards, & Page Turner Awards Finalist.
