We Ride the Storm - Devin Madson

\nIn the midst of a burgeoning war, a warrior, an assassin, and a princess chase their own ambitions no matter the cost in Devin Madson's propulsive epic fantasy. \nWar built the Kisian Empire. War will tear it down. \nSeventeen years after rebels stormed the streets, factions divide Kisia. Only the firm hand of the god-emperor holds the empire together. But when a shocking betrayal destroys a tense alliance with neighboring Chiltae, all that has been won comes crashing down. \nIn Kisia, Princess Miko Ts'ai is a prisoner in her own castle. She dreams of claiming her empire, but the path to power could rip it, and her family, asunder. \nIn Chiltae, assassin Cassandra Marius is plagued by the voices of the dead. Desperate, she accepts a contract that promises to reward her with a cure if she helps an empire fall. \nAnd on the border between nations, Captain Rah e'Torin and his warriors are exiles forced to fight in a foreign war or die. \nAs an empire dies, three warriors will rise. They will have to ride the storm or drown in its blood. \nThe Reborn EmpireWe Ride the Storm \nFor more from Devin Madson, check out: The Vengeance TrilogyThe Blood of WhisperersThe Gods of ViceThe Grave at Storm's End
