Nothing is more deadly than a wounded dragon. Jhavika Keshmir stood on the cusp of greatness...until Captain Kevril Longbright stole her weapons of conquest. But the loss of her hand, her enchanted scourge, and her truthsayer did not defeat Jhavika, it only enraged her. Now her only goal is to take back what is hers and to kill the pirate captain in the process. Kevril flees across the Blood Sea with Jhavika close in his wake. Devastated by the changes wrought upon his beloved Preel by the scourge's enchantment, he vows to abolish Jhavika's burgeoning reign of slavery and blood if it is the last thing he ever does. And it may well be, considering the truthsayer's unsettling answer to his question of where they must go to destroy the scourge. Torn by conflicting emotions and memories, Preel seeks release from her magical torment. An unexpected ally offers an uneasy choice: a life of heart-rending sentiment or the solace of oblivion. Now all must confront their deepest nightmares in the magical maelstrom of the Serpent's Eye...

Nothing is more seductive than knowledge.Preel has more than she ever hoped for: the love of pirate captain Kevril Longbright; a home aboard the corsair Scourge; devoted friends; and freedom from slavery. Her mystical truthsayer talent - once a curse exploited by cruel masters - is now a boon to aid the pirates' missions. The future is bright...as long as her nature remains a secret. But keeping a secret in the city of Haven is nigh impossible.Jhavika Keshmir has spies everywhere, and her attention is fixed on Scourge. Possessed of an enchanted scourge and the avarice of a dragon, Jhavika intends to rule the Blood Sea someday. For that, she requires a navy, and who better to recruit a privateer armada than a pirate? But her alliance with Kevril Longbright is contentious; she resents his escape from her magical control and vows to learn how he did it.Now, Preel is caught between the man she loves and the woman who would be queen, between love and hate, truth and lies.Imprisoned by doubt, her reality shattered, only the truth will set her free...

A weapon, forged for an Emperor.. A Paladin's soul...And a girl trying to save her mother, by any means possible... These things have nothing in common... except in the city of Tsing, where life and death are as simple as the edge of a knife,or as complex as imperial politics. To maintain his tenuous hold on the hearts of the people, Emperor Tynean Tsing III needed a symbol of his just reign, his impartial judgment, and his swift hand against opposition.What better symbol than a weapon forged by a great Blademage and imbued with the soul of a Paladin, a weapon made for his hand alone? The perfect weapon... But is any weapon perfect? Is any man's soul flawless? What happens when the tiniest defect goes unnoticed? What happens when an Emperor's life, and an Empire's fate, are held hostage by a weapon of power gone mad? One girl holds the fate of the Empire in her unknowing hands. But what if she doesn't want to be found? What if she's a fugitive, hardened by a life of cruel lessons? Someone must find her. Someone must tell her the truth, and convince her that it is in her best interest to save the world that she has grown to despise.
