Of Kings and Shadows

by Dusti Nalley

An undead assassin confronts visions, loyalty, and a threat older than death.

ABOUT THE BOOK

All Eldin wanted was to be a Ghost. Roam the countryside, accept the occasional assassination job, and maybe even take on an apprentice. Oh, did you think a Ghost was something different? In Alarya, Ghosts aren’t spirits, they’re undead assassins, and Eldin exceeds at his job. What he doesn’t exceed in, is socializing. When he accidentally takes a young woman named Zinnia as an apprentice, she forces him to confront the unusual visions plaguing him. Where being a Ghost was once a lonely job, Eldin found himself surrounded by people who relied on him: from his apprentice, to the Crown Prince of the kingdom, to an ex-slave making plans to start a war against her slavers. Will Eldin be able to help all of them succeed while uncovering a threat as old as the Ghosts themselves? Only time, and a bit of jahtamit, will tell.
