"The first in an unmissable series, Priest of Bones is a fresh and compelling take on grimdark fantasy. Mashing together soldiers, gangsters, magic and war into a heady mix that is a hulking big brother to The Lies of Locke Lamora."--Anna Stephens, author of Godblind The war is over, and army...

When magical abilities awakened in Sulrad, it cost him everything. His family, his home, and his dignity. Getting invited to study magic in the wizards' city of Amedon was a step in the right direction, but it set him on a path that would land him in even more trouble than he was already in. Outcast from the wizarding society, Sulrad falls back on the obscure and unpopular religion his father clung to, taking it to heights even his father's god had never imagined.

When Tomas Piety and his Pious Men returned from the war, he just wanted to rebuild his crime empire and look after his people. But the sinister Queen's Men had different ideas, and whether he likes it or not, he's now a spy as well. Now, half the city of Ellinburg lies in ashes, and the webs of political intrigue are stretching out from the Queen's capital to pull Tomas in. Dannsburg is calling.   

Tomas Piety takes his duties seriously: as a soldier, as a priest of Our Lady of Eternal Sorrows and as a leader of men. He has come home from the war to reclaim his family business, to provide for his men and to ensure the horrors of Abingon can never happen in Ellinburg. But things have changed: his crime empire has been stolen, and the people of Ellinburg - his people - have run out of food and hope and places to hide. With his best friend, Bloody Anne, his war-damaged brother, Jochan, and his new gang, the Pious Men, Tomas sets out to reclaim what was his. 

Tomas Piety has everything he ever wanted. In public he's a wealthy, highly respected businessman, happily married to a beautiful woman and Governor of his home city of Ellinburg. In private, he's no longer a gang lord but one of the Queen's Men, invisible and officially non-existent, working in secret to protect his country.

Tomas Piety has been many things: soldier, priest, gangster...and spy. As Tomas's power grows, the nobility better watch their backs, in this dark and gritty epic fantasy series. People are weak, and the poorer and more oppressed they are, the weaker they become--until they can't take it anymore...

The Veil is failing. Tens of thousands of soldiers muster, threatening to overrun the free cities. Blood thirsty slavers, demons, and gods are bent on world domination while the dragons seek to set the world ablaze. Kit, along with her family, friends, and allies are all that stands between survival and Ragnarök, the end of days. Failure might not be an option, but success is practically an impossibility.

Kit, a girl of only 15, who had only recently achieved the position of Priest, is sent to a nearby village to investigate a series of unexplained deaths of human children. In doing so, she discovers something much deeper than just unrest; powerful people seek to remove all humans from the northern kingdoms, for the supposed crimes they are committing against the Berrat. As a reward for her recent successes, an elderly priest gifts Kit a sentient dragon-bone cane and information on the location of an ancient library.

Who'd have thought a young priest, a believer in truth, justice, and retribution, would climb the ranks of Berrathia’s most deadly slaver organization? If you want to destroy something bigger than yourself, sometimes the best approach is to do it from the inside. How Kit can infiltrate the organization, without getting herself or her friends killed—that's the challenge.

Kit, at the tender age of 11, leaves her home to join the Temple of the Fist, a group of austere warrior-priests dedicated to delivering justice and retribution to the kingdom of Arnnor. After five cycles as an acolyte, during what should have been a simple protection mission, Kit uncovers a sinister plot to eradicate the wolves across the kingdom. But why? With the help of her new friends, a young tracker named Indie and a dire wolf named Runt, can the young priest follow the trail to its grizzly conclusion?
