Masters of Kings

Kings bow down to the medieval mafia in a realm where power isn't gifted by royal blood-it's earned by sharp blades.

All over the Emerald Kingdom, crime rules the crown. On the cobblestone streets, respected guilds bound by blood oaths are the realm's true power. The men and women who lead them are called Swordfathers.

Andra serves in a guild that controls a herd of dragons as vulnerable as they are deadly. She must defend her Swordfather against the other guilds as they plot to slay him and dominate the realm. The fighting will be fierce. One rival Swordfather is so lethal that she casts spells with a dagger...while the blade is plunged in her victim.

But the guilds' deadliest weapons aren't made of steel. They're lies disguised as tempting gifts that lure the unwary into a web of debt. If Andra fails, that web will tighten like a noose around her Swordfather, guild, and realm. She'll need quick wits, and a quicker blade, as Masters of Kings launches the war to decide which Swordfather will rule the medieval mafia.
