In the heart of the Illhari Republic...
Snowdenaelikk returns to Illharek, the city—and life—she rejected, looking for help against the vengeful dragon god rising on the border. With her comes Veiko, her outlander partner who can talk to the dead. But instead of allies, Snow finds conspiracy. The enemy's already in Illharek.
And when the city falls, the dragon will be waiting.

"This story delights from cover to cover. The political intrigue never fails to surprise, each character is layered and compelling, and there's a perfect balance between science-fiction action and fairy-tale fantasy. Do not, under any circumstances, miss out on this." —Kirkus (starred review) on How Rory Thorne Destroyed the Multiverse
"Eason adds a feminist modern twist to fairy tale and sf tropes while presenting an intergalactic adventure that enthralls in its own right, striking that ideal balance between original and...]]> Thu, 24 Mar 2022 22:16:07 +0200 Nightwatch over Windscar https://cultural.library.land/k-eason/625808-nightwatch_over_windscar.html https://cultural.library.land/k-eason/625808-nightwatch_over_windscar.html Nightwatch over Windscar
Set in the universe of Rory Thorne, the second book in this sci-fi series follows unlikely allies who must discover the secrets of ancient ruins.

Iari is good at killing monsters. As a templar in the Aedis, a multi-species religious organization committed to protecting the Confederation, eliminating extra-dimensional horrors is her job. But after she helped stop separatists from sabotaging the entire Confederation, she discovered a new sort of monster: the rogue-arithmancer, political kind.
Promoted and sent north to the tundra of Windscar, Iari leads a team of templars to investigate ancient, subterranean ruins, which local legend claims are haunted, and which have mysterious connections to the dangerous arithmancy used by the wichu separatists. Iari isn’t worried about ghosts. She’s worried about surviving separatists and a fresh attempt to upend the Confederation.
Included in Iari’s team are Char, a decommissioned battle-mecha and...]]> Mon, 28 Nov 2022 22:51:33 +0200 How the Multiverse Got Its Revenge https://cultural.library.land/k-eason/567915-how_the_multiverse_got_its_revenge.html https://cultural.library.land/k-eason/567915-how_the_multiverse_got_its_revenge.html How the Multiverse Got Its Revenge
Rory Thorne must use the fairy blessings gifted to her to change the multiverse in the second book in this space opera duology.
After avoiding an arranged marriage, thwarting a coup, and inadvertently kick-starting a revolution, Rory Thorne has renounced her title and embraced an unglamorous life as a privateer on the edge of human space.
Her new life is interrupted when Rory and her crew—former royal bodyguards, Thorsdottir and Zhang, and co-conspirator Jaed—encounter an abandoned ship registered under a false name, seemingly fallen victim to attack. As they investigate, they find evidence of vicious technology and arithmancy, alien and far beyond known capabilities.
The only answer to all the destruction is the mysterious, and unexpected, cargo: a rose plant. One that reveals themself to be sentient—and designed as a massive biological weapon. Rose seeks to escape their intended fate, but before Rory and her friends can get Rose off the...]]> Wed, 02 Dec 2020 17:36:14 +0200 Nightwatch on the Hinterlands https://cultural.library.land/k-eason/605338-nightwatch_on_the_hinterlands.html https://cultural.library.land/k-eason/605338-nightwatch_on_the_hinterlands.html Nightwatch on the Hinterlands
Set in the universe of Rory Thorne, this new sci-fi mystery follows an unlikely duo who must discover the motive behind an unusual murder.

THE TEMPLAR: When Lieutenant Iari hears screams in the night, she expects to interrupt a robbery or break up a fight. Instead she discovers a murder with an impossible suspect: a riev, one of the battle-mecha decommissioned after the end of the last conflict, repurposed for manual labor. Riev don't kill people. And yet, clearly, one has. Iari sets out to find it.

THE SPY: Officially, Gaer is an ambassador from the vakari. Unofficially, he's also a spy, sending information back to his government, unfiltered by diplomatic channels. Unlike Iari, Gaer isn't so sure the riev's behavior is just a malfunction, since the riev were created using an unstable mixture of alchemy and arithmancy.

As Gaer and Iari search for the truth, they discover that the murderous riev is just a weapon in the hands of a wielder with wider...]]> Thu, 14 Jan 2021 11:30:22 +0200 How Rory Thorne Destroyed the Multiverse--Book One of the Thorne Chronicles https://cultural.library.land/k-eason/494401-how_rory_thorne_destroyed_the_multiverse-book_one_of_the_thorne_chronicles.html https://cultural.library.land/k-eason/494401-how_rory_thorne_destroyed_the_multiverse-book_one_of_the_thorne_chronicles.html How Rory Thorne Destroyed the Multiverse--Book One of the Thorne Chronicles
First in a duology that reimagines fairy tale tropes within a space opera—The Princess Bride meets Princess Leia.

Rory Thorne is a princess with thirteen fairy blessings, the most important of which is to see through flattery and platitudes. As the eldest daughter, she always imagined she'd inherit her father's throne and govern the interplanetary Thorne Consortium.

Then her father is assassinated, her mother gives birth to a son, and Rory is betrothed to the prince of a distant world.

When Rory arrives in her new home, she uncovers a treacherous plot to unseat her newly betrothed and usurp his throne. An unscrupulous minister has conspired to name himself Regent to the minor (and somewhat foolish) prince. With only her wits and a small team of allies, Rory must outmaneuver the Regent and rescue the prince.

How Rory Thorne Destroyed the Multiverse is a feminist reimagining of familiar fairytale tropes...]]> Mon, 18 Nov 2019 16:19:01 +0200 Ally https://cultural.library.land/k-eason/90638-ally.html https://cultural.library.land/k-eason/90638-ally.html Ally
