When a destitute young woman hires
two thieves to help save her remote village from nocturnal
attacks, they are drawn into the schemes of the wizard
Esrahaddon. While Royce struggles to breech the secrets of an
ancient elven tower, Hadrian attempts to rally the villagers to
defend themselves against an unseen killer. What begins
with the simple theft of a sword places the two thieves at the
center of a firestorm
— that could change the future of
Elan.
RECENT REVIEWS
"Mr. Sullivan continues to impress. In Royce and
Hadrian he has created some
of the best characters the genre has seen in some
time, and in Avempartha he
shows that he knows what to do with them. These
books should be in every bookstore"

Speculative Fiction Junkie
"Avempartha is
another strong entry that exceeds its predecessor in
both depth and scope. The Riyria Revelations is
shaping up to be one of the most original and
entertaining fantasy series I’ve seen in years on
par, and often better, than anything any of the
major publishers have to offer. Get reading people!"

Fantasy Reviews
"In
short, “Avempartha” is highly, highly recommended and a
novel that raises Michael Sullivan’s The Riyria Revelations
to “major league” status."

ABOUT THE SERIES
Avempartha is book two of the multi-book saga: The Riyria
Revelations. Instead of a string of sequels this
six-book fantasy series was conceived as a single
epic tale divided into individual episodes. All were
written before the first was released so that plot
elements are intertwined, yet each is self-contained
and can be read independently from each other.
Avempartha can be enjoyed by those who have not read
the first episode: The Crown Conspiracy. |
