Product Description For a millennium, Dragonstones atop the world’s pyramids have prevented the Orc Gods from returning and re-enslaving mankind. Now, a brewing war in a vibrant port between its squabbling council of lords and resurgent crime families puts one pyramid at risk. Only Cassius Larusso can assemble a team to end the impending threat. A descendant of the Diviner who first banished the Orc Gods, he might be convinced to act— as long as it fills his coffers with gold, his stomach with delicious food, and his bed with a different type of delicacy. Unfortunately, his choice of companions is limited to the poor souls who come seeking his sometimes fraudulent divinations: A half-elf spy tracking an assassin. A sorceress searching a traitor. A paladin pursuing his forbidden love. If he can trick coax them into putting aside their own agendas and taking up his own, Cassius might be able to stave off a war, secure his city, and write his own destiny. If not, what begins as a back-alley battle may bring about the downfall of every nation in Tivara. Review "This conflict-driven tale of politics and underhandedness will appeal to a wide range of fantasy fans." -- Publisher's Weekly ***"The story was pleasantly fast paced and I never found myself bogged down with over explanation or meaningless descriptions. And the banter between the characters was another thing I enjoyed. The dialogue gave the overall plot another infusion of energy that kept me turning the pages." -- Rakib Khan, Fantasy-Faction***"For such a character heavy story this had a very complicated plot underneath. It reminded me of Oceans Eleven, not because there was a heist, but for that art of balancing groups of people, secret motivations, and character development through conversations and action as this big involved plot unfolds underneath. It takes some serious talent to balance all of that and keep things moving." -- Jennifer at Starlit Book Asylum
