In" The Emperor's Blades" by Brian Staveley, the emperor of
Annur is dead, slain by enemies unknown. His daughter and two sons,
scattered across the world, do what they must to stay alive and
unmask the assassins. But each of them also has a life-path on
which their father set them, destinies entangled with both ancient
enemies and inscrutable gods.
Kaden, the heir to the Unhewn Throne, has spent eight years
sequestered in a remote mountain monastery, learning the enigmatic
discipline of monks devoted to the Blank God. Their rituals hold
the key to an ancient power he must master before it's too
late.
An ocean away, Valyn endures the brutal training of the Kettral,
elite soldiers who fly into battle on gigantic black hawks. But
before he can set out to save Kaden, Valyn must survive one
horrific final test.
At the heart of the empire, Minister Adare, elevated to her station
by one of the emperor's final acts, is determined to prove herself
to her people. But Adare also believes she knows who murdered her
father, and she will stop at nothing--and risk everything--to see
that justice is meted out.
