Description: "The Deputies-General has precarious control of the city, but it is led by a zealot who sees traitors in every shadow. Executions have become a grim public spectacle. The new queen, Raesinia Orboan, finds herself nearly powerless as the government tightens its grip and assassins threaten her life. But she did not help free the country from one sort of tyranny to see it fall into another. Placing her trust with the steadfast soldier Marcus D'Ivoire, she sets out to turn the tide of history"--
Review Quotes: Praise for The Shadow Campaigns
"Wexler has produced something unusual in the fantasy line, with a setting reminiscent of the early Victorian period, out on the bleeding edge of Empire, a world of dust and bayonets and muskets...and magic...I read it at a gulp and look forward to more."--S.M. Stirling, New York Times bestselling author of the Novels of the Change "Highly entertaining...mixes elements of Bernard Cornwell-esque military adventure with an original take on magic and keen eye for action, dialogue and character."--Anthony Ryan, New York Times Bestselling Author of The Waking Fire "Marvellously written, ingeniously conceived, and great fun."--Simon R. Green, New York Times Bestselling Author of Dr. DOA "Wexler's storytelling and characterization are top-notch, but he's really in command when the battles arrive...Gritty, brutal, and yet wonderfully intimate, The Thousand Names is exceptional military fantasy."--Jason M. Hough, New York Times bestselling author of Zero World
