<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Two thieves in the wrong place at the wrong time are on the run in this fact-paced adventure fantasy"--Provided by publisher.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Royce Melborn, a skilled thief, and his mercenary partner, Hadrian Blackwater, make a profitable living carrying out dangerous assignments for conspiring nobles-until they are hired to pilfer a famed sword. What appears to be just a simple job finds them framed for the murder of the king and trapped in a conspiracy that uncovers a plot far greater than the mere overthrow of a tiny kingdom. <p/>Can a self-serving thief and an idealistic swordsman survive long enough to unravel the first part of an ancient mystery that has toppled kings and destroyed empires? <p/>And so begins the first tale of treachery and adventure, sword fighting and magic, myth and legend. <p/>When author Michael J. Sullivan self-published the first books of his Riyria Revelations, they rapidly became ebook bestsellers. Now, Orbit is pleased to present the complete series for the first time in bookstores everywhere.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Hair-raising escapes, flashy sword fights, and faithful friendship complete the formula for good old-fashioned escapist fun. <p/>--<b>Publishers Weekly</b><br><br>Praise for the Riyria Revelations: <p/>Mr. Sullivan continues to impress. In Royce and Hadrian he has created some of the best characters the genre has seen in some time, and in <i>Avempartha</i> he shows that he knows what to do with them. These books should be in every bookstore and I really hope that they are someday. --- Speculative Fiction Junkie <p/>A whirlwind of twists, earth-shattering surprises and deadly betrayal. --- Literary Magic<br><br>This epic fantasy showcases the arrival of a master storyteller.--<b>Library Journal</b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Born in Detroit, Michigan, <b>Michael J.
