The Blood of Whisperers (The Vengeance Trilogy #1)

An empire on the edge of war threatens to crumble in this action-packed fantasy novel of epic adventure and revenge.

They call him the Usurper.

Once the Kisian empire was ruled by gods. Now Kin Ts'ai, a man of common blood, sits on the Crimson Throne. At his command, the last Otako emperor was executed and a new era began. But claiming an empire is easier than holding it.

In the north where loyalty to the Otako name runs deep, a rebellion grows. And Emperor Kin will learn that killing one Otako, doesn't mean you've killed them all.
