Coin of Kings

Kirshta's master is dead. Can he use his half-completed magical training to save himself and
his sister?

Kirshta has survived the immolation of his teacher, the mad thikratta Ruyam. But now he's alone, and desperate for some way to reunite with his sister and continue learning the thikratta's arts. He takes a desperate gamble and convinces the captain of the imperial guard that he can foresee their future and help them return safely to the capital. But now he has to scheme to make his own prophecies come true, or he'll forfeit his sister's life---and his own.

Meanwhile, Navran has passed through the fires of the sorcerer Ruyam and sits uneasily on the throne of Virnas. But the kingdom's finances are in total disarray, and his closest advisor is stripped away from him by a treacherous friend. Can a comely newcomer to the kingdom help him put things in order?

The second volume of The Powers of Amur will take you from the palaces of the southern kingdoms to the dungeons of the Emperor, in a rich and exhiliarating epic fantasy tale!
