44 Raccoons, 2018

If you lie with scorpions, you'd better have a taste for poison. Now that Kendras's lover Adrastes has claimed the throne of Dalman, Kendras is tangled deeper than ever in politics and intrigue. As the new leader of the Scorpions and Adrastes's one true friend, he and his men stand between Adrastes and those who wish him dead. And many do. Adrastes openly challenges the ocean priesthood for power while establishing himself at court and brokering with the realm's various factions. He means for the Scorpions to become a fearsome legion again, but Kendras must first learn how to be a good officer and recruit to replace the fallen. His choices will determine the future of a group steeped in hundreds of years of history and tradition. As both Kendras and Adrastes settle old scores, a new enemy arises in Commander Graukar, a war hero loyal to the old order. In his formidable mountain fortress, Graukar may hold the balance of power. But while Adrastes aims to either rule or destroy Graukar, Kendras finds himself doubting Adrastes for the first time, and sharing more with Graukar than he ever thought possible. This 83,000-word novel has been previously published.
