Magic, mystery, and revolution collide in this fantasy epic where an unlikely team of mages, scribes, and archivists must band together to unearth a conspiracy that might topple their empire. - Cat Rambo, author of You Sexy Thing.
Empire of Exiles has it all: characters I love, intertwined compelling mysteries in the past and present, plot twists that keep coming, and a unique and fascinating world and magic system! - Melissa Caruso, author of The Obsidian Tower Beautifully wrought and equally ensnaring, this book lived up to and then surpassed all my expectations.
And what they uncover will be the key to saving the Empire - or destroying it again.
With Quill being the main witness to the murder, and no one in power believing his story, he must join the Archivists -- a young mage, a seasoned archivist, and a disillusioned detective -- to solve the truth of the attack.
Just as the artifacts are unearthed, the city is shaken by a brutal murder that seems to have been caused by a weapon not seen since the days of rebellion.
But these aren\'t just any artifacts -- these are the instruments of revolution, the banners under which the Duke lead his coup.
He\'s always found his apprenticeship to a lawman to be dull work.
Now, when Quill, an apprentice scribe, arrives in the capital city, he believes he\'s on a simple errand for another pompous noble: fetch ancient artifacts from the magical Imperial Archives.
The Empire moved on.
The Duke was executed, a terrifyingly powerful sorcerer was imprisoned, and an unwilling princess disappeared.
He failed. - Ed Greenwood, creator of the Forgotten Realms and internationally bestselling author Twenty-seven years ago, a Duke with a grudge led a ruthless coup against the Empire of Semilla, killing thousands.
In these pages, you are in the hands of a master.
Deft worldbuilding and wonderful verbal fencing that is a delight to read.
Salvatore, author or The Legend of Drizzt and the DemonWars novels The beginning of a truly epic tale.
Empire of Exiles is highly recommended! - R.

Detailed and mysterious, a place to explore and relish.
What makes this book special, even by Erin\'s lofty goalposts, is the world she weaves around the characters.
