Torris Corozad is perhaps the most talented weapons expert and swordsmith that her country has ever seen. She is also the leader of a band of runaways and vagabonds that hides out in an abandoned monastery on the border between two rival countries. When the Warrior-King of the neighboring land of Ebellum is assassinated, the arrow that impaled his brain like a suckled pig on a spitroast is identified to have been masterfully crafted by Torris. Suspicious eyes turn westward. An inquirer from the King's court is sent to question her, but Kellen Tarr, a renowned brute and killer, is determined to get to her first. With no surviving heir, the Warchief has left behind no legacy, and virtually limitless power in the form of the throne is up for grabs. Thieves, pirates, and sorcerers all swarm to Ebellum's capital city of Duinthral to demonstrate their wealth and power, and make bids for the crown. The only way Kellen believes he has a claim to it is by the ultimate display of power: destroying the monster known only as "the Shapeless" that has been plagueing their world for centuries. However, in order to defeat it, he will need Torris's help. Torris, on the other hand, has a completely separate agenda- one she hopes to accomplish before Kellen catches on and does everything in his power to stop her. Written from dual perspectives, Interregnum is the exciting first installment of the prospective Ebellum Trilogy.

❖ QUEENKILLER, KINGMAKER Book 1 ❖ Feudal Southeast-Asia filled with magic, daemons, and a royal conspiracy. This is Isla's quest for the truth, and her slow spiral into becoming her very own worst nightmare. When the gods ascended thousands of years ago, they left behind the divine gift of theurgy. Its powers still echo amongst men, but run fiercer yet in the blood of kings and queens. And one of them will stop at nothing before Isla is dead. A betrayal lures her out of refuge and into her journey home, where she must unmask her enemies before they unmask her. The theurgy that she has had to keep hidden for many years can be her greatest ally or her most lethal foil. Only her wits can guide her through the dangerous politics of the Surikh court. But amidst the plots and schemes bubbling around her, she uncovers something far more sinister than the identity of her enemies. Something that can change her entire life; indeed, entire kingdoms. ↝ this work contains violence, profanity, and sexual references ↜ ↝ Winner of Wattys 2016 HQ Love Award ↝ Winner of FANTASCI's first season Chosen One awards ↝ Winner of The Cryptic Awards 2018 ↝ Featured in Fantasy as of 18-01-2017 ↝ Wattpad Editor's Pick January 2021
