<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Expecting to find allies among the deserting Levanti, Rah instead finds an enemy in their enigmatic Horse Whisperer. No longer a unified group, he struggles to lead the fractured Levanti, and will have to choose between fighting for his people's survival and the life of his oldest friend. Having allies isn't the same as keeping them. Miko has to move fast to secure a foothold in the ruins of her empire, yet for every success she makes ever more enemies. With the empire at stake she cannot give up, but can she be the empress she wants to be? Or will she have to give up everything to be the ruler her people will accept? Named Defender of the One True God in punishment for failing to kill deserters, Dishiva finds herself precariously poised between two worlds. She can neither trust the Swords who betrayed her nor the people she ought to be ruling. Yet caught to Dom Villius, she has the chance to challenge his growing power, but she'll have to give up everything that makes her feel Levanti to do it. Cassandra just wants to get her body back, but Empress Hana needs to find a way to weaken Dom Villius's growing power before he turns Kisia into his own empire. With him closing his net around them, they'll have to choose between their own survival and letting him win"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>"A complex tale of war, politics, and lust for power."</b> --<i>The Guardian</i> <p/><b>Alliances fracture and hope wanes in a ravaged empire caught between three factions in the heart-pounding continuation of Devin Madson's bold epic fantasy series, The Reborn Empire.</b> <p/>Ambition and schemes have left the Kisian Empire in ashes. Empress Miko Ts'ai will have to move fast if she hopes to secure a foothold in its ruins. However, the line between enemies and allies may not be as clear-cut as it first appeared. <p/>After failing to win back his Swords, former Captain Rah e'Torin finds shelter among the Levanti deserters. But his presence in the camp threatens to fracture the group, putting him on a collision course with their enigmatic leader. <p/>Assassin Cassandra Marius knows Leo Villius's secret--one that could thwart his ambitions to conquer Kisia. But her time in Empress Hana's body is running out and each attempt they make to exploit Leo's weakness may be playing into his plans. <p/>And, as Leo's control over the Levanti emperor grows, Dishiva e'Jaroven is caught in his web. She'll have to decide how many of her people are worth sacrificing in order to win. <p/><b>Praise for The Reborn Empire: </b> <p/>"Imaginative worldbuilding, a pace that builds perfectly to a heart-pounding finale and captivating characters.

After some sucky teenage years, she gave up reality and is now a dual-wielding rogue who works through every tiny side-quest and always ends up too over-powered for the final boss. Anything but zen, Devin subsists on tea and chocolate and so much fried zucchini she ought to have turned into one by now. Her fantasy novels come in all shades of grey and are populated with characters of questionable morals and a liking for witty banter.
