About the book

Royce Melborn, a skilled thief, and his mercenary partner, Hadrian Blackwater, make a profitable living carrying out dangerous assignments for conspiring nobles-until they are hired to pilfer a famed sword. What appears to be just a simple job finds them framed for the murder of the king and trapped in a conspiracy that uncovers a plot far greater than the mere overthrow of a tiny kingdom.

Can a self-serving thief and an idealistic swordsman survive long enough to unravel the first part of an ancient mystery that has toppled kings and destroyed empires?

And so begins the first tale of treachery and adventure, sword fighting and magic, myth and legend.

When author Michael J. Sullivan self-published the first books of his Riyria Revelations, they rapidly became ebook bestsellers. Now, Orbit is pleased to present the complete series for the first time in bookstores everywhere.

Everything I want in a fantasy book!
Two guys with main character energy who are platonic soulmates going on adventures in a realm where things have names like Gilarabrywn* or Percepliquis* while also meeting a cast of super loveable characters. (*Yes, there is a comprehensive glossary with pronunciation guide, yay!) You're still not sure if you should read this book? Here are some of my favorite episodes (minor spoilers ahead) - A prison break - fighting a (for all intents and purposes) dragon to save a village - literally saving a princess from a tower (twice, somehow)

Für Adventure-Klassiker Fans
Wer auf klassische Abenteuer-Fantasy mit "heists" (Raube) , Verschwörungen und der gleichen sowie Geplänkel zwischen den Hauptcharakteren steht, dem kann ich das Buch nur empfehlen. Die Charaktere haben es mir sehr angetan und ich bin gespannt wie die Reise für Royce und Hadrian, aber auch wie es für viele der "Nebencharaktere" weitergeht. Und, if you know you know: diese letzten beiden Sätze, ahhh!! 🫨😌🙂‍↕️
