Maledicte

Antyre: Book 1

Lane Robins

From a dazzling new voice in fantasy comes a mesmerizing tale of treachery, passion, intrigue, betrayal, and an act of pure vengeance that threatens to bring down a kingdom.

Seething with decadent appetites unchecked by law or gods, the court of Antyre is ruled by the last of a dissolute aristocracy. But now to the kingdom comes a handsome, enigmatic nobleman, Maledicte, whose perfect manners, enchanting charisma, and brilliant swordplay entice the most jaded tastes and conceal a hunger beyond reckoning.

For Maledicte is actually a woman named Miranda-a beautiful thief raised in the city's vicious slums. And she will do anything-even promise her soul to Black-Winged Ani, the most merciless of Antyre's exiled gods-to reclaim Janus, the lover whose passion still haunts her dreams. As her machinations strike at the heart of Antyre's powerful noble houses, Miranda must battle not only her own growing bloodlust, but also her lover's newly kindled and ruthless ambitions. As Ani's force grows insatiable and out of control, Miranda has no choice but to wield a weapon that may set her free or forever doom her and everything she holds dear.

Kings and Assassins

Antyre: Book 2

Lane Robins

Controlled by an aristocracy whose depraved whims bow to neither law nor god, the kingdom of Antyre is under siege from the only man who can save it. He is Janus Ixion, the new Earl of Last, a man whose matchless fighting abilities and leadership strike terror in Antyre's powerful noble houses.

For Janus is the illegitimate son who has returned from the brutal slums to reclaim his birthright, and will go to any lengths to become king and reverse his country's decline. But with a conquering foreign prince sowing chaos throughout the kingdom, Janus must battle the terrifying power of Antyre's forgotten god, one who has gifted Janus's vengeful wife with mysterious and dangerous skills. As Antyre nears irrevocable collapse, Janus's manipulations and all-consuming ambition will force him and his country to choose between the rule of resurgent gods, or a victor's throne of ashes.
