About this ebook
Imperial law enforcer Amaranthe Lokdon is good at her job: she can deter thieves and pacify thugs, if not with a blade, then by toppling an eight-foot pile of coffee canisters onto their heads.
But when ravaged bodies show up on the waterfront, an arson covers up human sacrifices, and a powerful business coalition plots to kill the emperor, she feels a tad overwhelmed.
Worse, Sicarius, the empire's most notorious assassin, is in town. He's tied in with the chaos somehow, but Amaranthe would be a fool to cross his path. Unfortunately, her superiors order her to hunt him down. Either they have an unprecedented belief in her skills... or someone wants her dead.
The Emperor's Edge series is complete at eight books and recommended for fans of epic fantasy, sword and sorcery, and steampunk.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The heroine's and anti-heros' character developments and their interactions, along with the storyline, made this book a one sitting read for me. I loved the heroine's positive attitude and her gumption, but my favorite character by far, was the assassin. If you like fantasy and an action packed storyline each chapter that's hard to put down, this book is for you. Would definitely recommend it to my friends who like this genre.

Great read I've come to expect as this lady can weave amazing stories. Great characters, nice plots with twists and a smidge of humor that has me laughing out loud as I'm trying to quietly read at bedtime.

I've read the first quarter of this series before from a seperate means (Wattpad) and extremely fell in love with it. The characters stay lovingly within my memories and so does the story. This is the exact kind of story I look for or better yet, what I should say is that this book has completely changed my perspective on others. Although feeling guilty that I had once been unable to supprt Buroker and insisting the reads be freely accessible to all on Wattpad, I am happy to try and support her now and the rest of the series.
