City of the Dead

More about the book

Battle-scarred and cynical, Conyr survives as a guard in Eretria's foulest prison for one reason. He watches his back. When he's blackmailed into breaking Dru out of prison, staying safe becomes impossible. A young priest from an enemy city, Dru has come to Eretria on a mission. But he has a big problem. He can't remember what his mission is. And the ruling elite of both cities intend to discover it by any means necessary. Together, Conyr and Dru must navigate a maze of power-hungry rivals, desert assassins, and magical attacks if they wish to live. Deep beneath the city itself long-dead gods kindle to life-and they are angry. For the young priest's lost memory holds more than the key to his past, but also the fates of two cities. "a strong, well done, you-won't-go-wrong sort of novel..." - Dead Trees Review
