The Justice of Kings by Richard Swan

From a major new debut author in epic fantasy comes the first book in a trilogy where action, intrigue, and magic collide. The Justice of Kings introduces an unforgettable protagonist destined to become a fantasy icon: Sir Konrad Vonvalt, an Emperor's Justice, who is a detective, judge, and executioner all in one. But these are dangerous times to be a Justice.

Utterly compelling, thoroughly engrossing, and written with such skillful assurance I could barely put it down. - Nicholas Eames, author of>Kings of the Wyld

A brilliant debut and fantastic start to the series. - James Islington, author of>The Shadow of What Was Lost

The Empire of the Wolf simmers with unrest. Rebels, heretics, and powerful patricians all challenge the power of the Imperial throne.

Only the Order of Justices stands in the way of chaos. Sir Konrad Vonvalt is the most feared Justice of all, upholding the law by way of his sharp mind, arcane powers, and skill as a swordsman. At his side stands Helena Sedanka, his talented prot g , orphaned by the wars that forged the Empire.

When the pair investigates the murder of a provincial aristocrat, they unearth a conspiracy that stretches to the very top of Imperial society. As the stakes rise and become ever more personal, Vonvalt and Helena must make a choice: Will they abandon the laws they've sworn to uphold, in order to protect the Empire?

Richard Swan's sophisticated take on the fantasy genre will leave readers hungry for more. - Sebastien de Castell, author of>Spellslinger

A fantastic debut. - Peter McLean, author of>Priest of Bones
