"For all of you who need some great fantasy to read while you're
waiting for The Winds of Winter...try Quillifer, by Walter Jon
Williams. WJW is always fun, but this might be his best yet, a
delight from start to finish, witty, colorful, exciting and amusing
by turns, exquisitely written." -George R. R. Martin, author of the
Song of Ice and Fire series "Chock full of derring-do, blood and
thunder, swashbuckling, and other good stuff." -Paul di Filippo,
Locus "You have risen as far as you can, and from this point, you
may only fall. The matter is inevitable, and I need not intervene."
Quillifer's archenemy, the beautiful and vengeful goddess Orlanda,
predicts his inescapable fall from power, and Quillifer has to
admit that she may be right. Quillifer has risen high at court. The
butcher's son is now a lord, and now is the confidential agent of
the state, the caretaker of the kingdom's secrets, and the secret
lover of the young and brilliant Queen Floria. He finds himself
surrounded by perils. The nobles are at odds with one another, but
united in despising Quillifer. Someone has brought deadly poison
into court, and Quillifer fears the Queen may be the intended
victim. Another assassination plot is aimed at Quillifer himself,
and an enemy nation has landed troops intending to topple Floria by
force. Quillifer must solve every mystery, meet every danger, and
discover every secret in order to guard himself and his love,
Floria, from the dangers that beset them. Lord Quillifer marks the
anticipated return of Walter Jon Williams, a New York Times
bestselling author and multiple award-winning fantasy author.
