Here’s the set-up:
is a dark, nautical fantasy for anyone who loves Robin Hobb, Stephen R. Donaldson, Pirates of the Caribbean, or any high seas fantasy adventure with complex, morally ambiguous characters.
These characters inhabit a chain of island kingdoms called Wefrivain. The kingdoms’ querulous lords are united only by religion, a wyvern cult ruled by an eccentric High Priestess. The Temple is under attack by a gang of pirates, known as the Guild of the Cowry Catchers. They’ve been preying on Temple treasure ships. The Temple Police charged with eradicating this menace keep disappearing.
Enter Gerard, a young prince who was exiled from his small island kingdom for marrying the court minstrel. Chosen by the High Priestess as the new Captain of Police, Gerard is smart, honorable, and a little naive. To break the pirate ring, he must cooperate with a wily, amoral admiral—who has already tried to kill him twice… Dark secrets lurk in the Temple dungeons, and solving them will cost Gerard far more than his honor.

,’ Ms. Hilton delivers a vibrant world peopled with nuanced, complex characters. Their challenges and dilemmas, while fantastic, contain elements that are relatable. You can’t help but come to care for these people, to want to know their fates, and that’s one of the many reasons this book and its sequels are so compulsively readable. Furthermore,the lovely illustrations provide readers with intriguing snapshots of the world, making the book as much a visual experience as a literary one. A great book for anyone who enjoys fantasy. “
