Paladin of Souls

Lois McMaster Bujold

The half-mad Prince Boleso has been slain by a noblewoman he had intended to defile -- and Lord Ingrey kin Wilfcliff must transport the body to its burial place and the accused killer, the Lady Ijada, to judgment. With the death of the old Hallow King imminent and the crown in play, the road they must travel together is a dangerous one. And though he is duty-bound to deliver his prisoner to an almost certain death, Ijada may be the only one Ingrey dares trust. For a monstrous malevolence holds the haunted lord in its sway -- and a great and terrible destiny has been bestowed upon him by the gods, the damned, and the dead.

The second book in an exciting new urban fantasy series about a thief, an unlikely genie, a deadly cult, and an unbreakable curse.

Luck has never been on Gavyn Donatti’s side. Anyone else with magic abilities inherited from a distant genie relative would have it made, but not Donatti, descendant of a cranky, shape-shifting genie named Ian. The prince of a murdered kingdom, consumed with revenge and driven by an unbreakable curse, Ian is determined to hunt down and destroy every one of his enemies in the power-hungry snake clan—at any cost, including his life. Or Donatti’s.

Obsessed by his own rage, Ian has never really taught Donatti how to use his abilities. So, when a powerful cult of magic-users captures Ian’s wife, the princess Akila, and then Ian himself, Donatti is left alone to take on dozens of half-djinn and their mysterious leader with designs on world domination.

Facing an impossible mission, Donatti is forced to turn to an enemy for help—one who claims to know how to unlock his true potential. Trusting a snake might be the last mistake Donatti ever makes—but if he doesn’t learn to wield the power inside him, everyone will pay the ultimate price.

A disgraced soldier, a draco with attitude, and a thief who won’t let him quit. The fight for justice begins on the streets of Nike City.

Gideon Quinn, wrongly imprisoned for treason, is released under suspicious terms and sent to Nike City with nothing but a handful of starbucks, his pet draco Elvis, and a target on his back.

Gideon has one goal: clear his name and end the traitor who framed him. Nothing in that plan includes taking on strays—least of all an under-aged thief who crashes into his life, bringing chaos, questions, and—worst of all—more people.

But as danger closes in and enemies move in the shadows, Gideon must decide: continue chasing his solitary revenge—or stand up and fight for those Fortune has left behind.

If you love little dragons, found families, and unlikely heroes, you'll be right at home on the planet Fortune.
