Book Description
Kelly McCullough, author of Drawn Blades, presents another Fallen Blade adventure with Aral Kingslayer... Aral Kingslayer has nothing to lose—and only justice to gain. Torn apart by the death of his goddess, he must avenge her in order to save himself from being lost forever.... It’s been nine long years since the death of his patron, Namara, and exalted assassin Aral Kingslayer desperately misses the thrill and glory of being a higher power of justice. Now he is haunted by the ghosts of the past—and by the ghost of the lost goddess herself. When Namara calls upon Aral in a dream to seek justice for her death and the ruination of her temple, Aral must obtain the help of his fellow former Blades and his Shade familiar, Triss, to pursue the vengeance he knows Namara deserves. Even if it means attacking Heaven’s Son—and going against one of their own—in a bloody battle of epic proportions...

Book Description
About the Book Adam St. James is back again in another exciting sequel of the Cryptid Trilogy Series! Adam returns to a new alternate universe with new characters and a new dilemma as his family, friends and associates puzzle through the odd series of events, murders, and assassinations that have gripped Adam’s life. His family has seemingly gone insane, abandoned him without explanation and forced him to leave home and relocate to New York City. His long-time love, Misti Alarcon, has broken off their relationship abruptly and disappeared; Adam is sure his family knows why, but after the murder of Misti’s father, retired Seattle police Sergeant Carlos “Carlito” Alarcon, she goes deep underground. Adam, unable to deal with family and personal betrayal, goes into a deep funk that takes years to overcome. When he does, he meets Lola Romano and her family; he proposes to Lola only to lose her in an explosion at her family’s restaurant. With the Romano family murdered shortly after meeting with Misti Alarcon and the Suarez family, Adam returns to Barrows Bay to confront his own family about their knowledge or involvement in those deaths. Adam soon begins spiraling down from a severe bout of depression at his loss and betrayal; he heads to San Diego, California to enter a treatment program at the prestigious Tolan Clinic. He meets and becomes close to Patsy Murray, a highly respected genealogist, as the mystery of his family background begins to emerge, causing a cascade of consequences for both Adam and Patsy as they are both pursued, but for vastly different reasons. A historical mystery of immense proportions, unsolved for hundreds of years, becomes central to the plot, its characters and the resolution of long-held family secrets. Nothing is as it seems and the twists and turns of this adventure tests all cunning and courage that Adam can muster. Old characters from the Cryptid Trilogy emerge, but with different personalities as the Many Worlds Interpretation of the cosmos begins to play out. The action picks up, the chase and mysteries are on, and once again Adam faces love, lust, danger, and betrayal as he unlocks the mystery of old enemies and rivals now on planet Earth. Are they there to help, hinder or confuse? Follow Adam as he confronts dangers from all beings now having a stake in his life and the outcome of the struggles against the dangerous forces arrayed against him.

Book Description
From the "inventive, irreverent" (Green Man Review) author of Broken Blade comes a new Fallen Blade novel featuring Aral Kingslayer. Former temple assassin Aral Kingslayer has a price on his head and a mark on his soul. After his goddess was murdered, Aral found refuge in the shadow jack business, fixing problems for those on the fringes of Tien’s underworld. It’s a long step down from working for the Goddess of Justice, but it gives Aral and Triss—the living shadow who is his secret partner—a reason to get up in the morning. When two women hit a rough spot in the tavern Aral uses for an office, he and Triss decide to lend a helping hand--only to find themselves in the middle of a three-way battle to find an artifact that just might be the key to preventing a war. And with so many factions on their trail, Aral and Triss are attracting a lot more attention than anyone featured on ten thousand wanted posters can afford…
