Master and Commander meets A Game of Thrones and Pirates of the
Carribean. Rapid-paced high fantasy with all-out combat on the high
seas, and a canny young woman who faces the hidden threats of an
imperial court. Yet the key to defeating a sorcerous enemy may lie
with a wild rogue and the slave of a maniac. For centuries the
Drehhu have ruled every continent, brutally enslaving the human
inhabitants. Now after endless wars the human empires of Ophion,
Velesa, and Modjal have pushed the inhuman enemy back to their
heartland and unite in a final, massive assault. Alastor Nevelon
and his son Crespin set sail against the Drehhu, and they have
their own secret weapons. Yet Alastor is forced to send his
daughter Chrysanthe to the capitol city Ophion Magne as a
“token” of his loyalty to the emperor. He instructs Chrysanthe
to use her considerable intellect to discover what plots may be
afoot, even as she enters a place where courtly manners hide
murderous intent. As nations collide the true key to defeating the
Drehhu may lie in a remote mountain stronghold, with a wild rogue
known as Hound and Ammolite, the young slave of a sorcerer more
ancient than any nation—whose loyalties remain threateningly
unknown.
