*** THE CUTLASS AND CROW TRILOGY:
'Outstandingly swashbuckling, outrageously gripping and out-of-this-world brilliant.' - DAILY MAIL
'Broad and detailed... the blend of mystery and bloody battles produces a compelling voyage' - SFX, 4*
'Thrilling' SUNDAY POST ***

Killian Heroneye made the impossible journey across Burner’s Run, defied ancient gods, and carved a bloody path across the Crown Isles to pay back his debts and find his sister. He should have won. Instead, his crew were taken, his enemies escaped, and the forces threatening the Crown Isles emerged stronger than ever. Now he is determined to make those responsible pay.

But the Crown Isles are changing. The Cil-Marie are expanding their empire across the thousand isles, armed with a new and terrible magic. Their ships are burning ports, their enemies are gathering, and at the heart of it all is Marion, Killian’s hated enemy, and Silver, the mage he once loved, at her side.

Killian wants revenge. But his search for his lost crew is drawing him into schemes far bigger than his own grudges, threatening the hard-won freedom he has fought to build. His sister Arlock is calling for war against the Cil-Marie, while old enemies and new powers close around him.

To save his crew, Killian must choose where he stands, and decide whether revenge is worth sacrificing everything else he has fought for.
