Publisher's Summary

“Enjoyable, entertaining, engaging fantasy.” (Tor.com)

At the Emperor's Command

Multiple races carefully navigate the City of Elantra under the Dragon Emperor’s wing. His Imperial Wolves are executioners, the smallest group to serve in the Halls of Law. The populace calls them assassins.

Every wolf candidate must consent to a full examination by the Tha’alani, one of the most feared and distrusted races in Elantra for their ability to read minds. Most candidates don’t finish their job interviews.

Severn Handred, the newest potential recruit, is determined to face and pass this final test — even if by doing so he’s exposing secrets he has never shared.

When an interrogation uncovers the connections to a two-decade-old series of murders of the Tha’alani, the Wolves are commanded to hunt. Severn’s first job will be joining the chase. From the High Halls to the Tha’alani quarter, from the Oracles to the Emperor, secrets are uncovered, tensions are raised and justice just might be done…if Severn can survive.

disappointing writing

As a Michelle Sagara fan, I am used to accepting a certain amount of repetitive plot and lack of character growth, and speech from characters that strains credulity. but this book took those flaws to new levels. seriously needed an edit. why is this teenager either subordinately silent or lecturing his colleagues? weirdly uneven exposition, where the characters either explain way too much or not at all. overall disappointing.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
