The Runebearer Curse

Nysska Stonegate-the tall, beautiful, fearsome sethyd whom whispering humans call "the demon sleuth"-has returned from the dead. Changed in ways the other members of the Ninth Crucible cannot understand, Nysska comes bearing mysteries...dire revelations...and a mission.Bound by an oath of silence. Charged with accomplishing the impossible upon pain of a horrible death. Nysska must fight her way from the Empire's rocky eastern shores to the howling, snowbound northern reaches-given no choice but to navigate a religious civil war among her own people; infiltrate an impregnable human fortress; and ultimately bring to light the hideous secret upon which the entire Valconian Empire was built.Neither humans nor sethyds will ever be the same once Nysska Stonegate shines the hard light of truth on The Runebearer Curse
