Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Euryanax is encamped with his father Dorieus' army in Italy. While sleeping outside the walls of Taras, they are attacked by indigenous tribesmen called Messapians. The Italians charge the camp on horseback, barking like dogs, throwing javelins and pelting the Spartan shieldwall with arrows and sling stones. The cavalry attack is only a feint meant to draw the Spartans' attention. While the army repels the invaders, a lone man sneaks into the tent of Dorieus' mistress, the beautiful hetaera Stesilaus and carries her off to the mysterious city of Sybaris. In the ancient world, Sybaris was synonymous with wealth, debauchery and impiety. The Sybarites are ruled by the tyrant Telys, who is intent on conquering all of southern Italy, including its neighboring city of Croton, home of the philosopher Pythagoras and his peaceful followers, the Cenobites. Will Dorieus' army become embroiled in the war between Sybaris and Croton, a struggle the Greeks considered akin to the Biblical tale of Sodom and Gomorrah? Or will the Spartans continue on to Sicily, where they intend on building a colony on Mount Eryx and resuming Dorieus' private war against the Persian Empire? Wander with Euryanax as his adventures lead him to the cities of Taras, Croton and Sybaris in Italy, and Heraklea, Motya and Selenius in Sicily. Then sail with him across the wine-dark sea to Attica, where Athens is attempting to overthrow its own tyrant, Hippias. Stand with Eury as he battles tyrants, mercenaries, barbarians and the powers of the East. Listen to the wisdom of Pythagoras, the schemes of the wily, lawyer Themistocles and the speeches of the future 'father of democracy, ' Cleisthenes. As you do, you'll watch Euryanax learn that becoming a Spartan King, means a lot more than leading soldiers to victory.

Book excerpt: A clean, unique twist on a classic fantasy action/adventure novel, The Wandering King is a story that follows a group of young friends through turbulent times, as war breaks out across their world and forces them to consider paths they had never dreamed of or even thought possible before... Eager to explore the world beyond their little village, young Lev Alaric and his four friends set out as caravan guards for an up and coming merchant. When war suddenly breaks out, the friends are met with hardships they never thought they would face, and they are forced to decide what their roles will be in the dangerous and uncertain world ahead of them. Unbeknownst to the five friends and the rest of the world at large, however, is the fact that, in the background of everything else that is going on, a dangerous, mythical group - known only to those who have delved too deeply into the oldest, most arcane secrets of the world - is on the move, looking for information that very few can give. What impact will these two seemingly unrelated groups have on the world and its future? Read The Wandering King and begin the grand, epic journey of finding out...

Book excerpt: Set in Williams' New York Times bestselling fantasy world, the second book of The Last King of Osten Ard returns to the trials of King Simon and Queen Miriamele as threats to their kingdom loom... The kingdoms of Osten Ard have been at peace for decades, but now, the threat of a new war grows to nightmarish proportions. Simon and Miriamele, royal husband and wife, face danger from every side. Their allies in Hernystir have made a pact with the dreadful Queen of the Norns to allow her armies to cross into mortal lands. The ancient, powerful nation of Nabban is on the verge of bloody civil war, and the fierce nomads of the Thrithings grasslands have begun to mobilize, united by superstitious fervor and their age-old hatred of the city-dwellers. But as the countries and peoples of the High Ward bicker among themselves, battle, bloodshed, and dark magics threaten to pull civilizations to pieces. And over it all looms the mystery of the Witchwood Crown, the deadly puzzle that Simon, Miriamele, and their allies must solve if they wish to survive. But as the kingdoms of Osten Ard are torn apart by fear and greed, a few individuals will fight for their own lives and destinies—not yet aware that the survival of everything depends on them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first in a sweeping and action-packed debut fantasy duology loosely inspired by the early climbers of Mt. Everest—perfect for fans of Cindy Pon and Alison Goodman. Kamzin has always dreamed of becoming one of the Emperor’s royal explorers, the elite climbers tasked with mapping the wintry, mountainous Empire and spying on its enemies. She knows she could be the best in the world, if only someone would give her a chance. But everything changes when the mysterious and eccentric River Shara, the greatest explorer ever known, arrives in her village and demands to hire Kamzin—not her older sister Lusha, as everyone had expected—for his next expedition. This is Kamzin’s chance to prove herself—even though River’s mission to retrieve a rare talisman for the emperor means climbing Raksha, the tallest and deadliest mountain in the Aryas. Then Lusha sets off on her own mission to Raksha with a rival explorer who is determined to best River, and Kamzin must decide what’s most important to her: protecting her sister from the countless perils of the climb or beating her to the summit. The challenges of climbing Raksha are unlike anything Kamzin expected—or prepared for—with avalanches, ice chasms, ghosts, and even worse at every turn. And as dark secrets are revealed, Kamzin must unravel the truth of their mission and of her companions—while surviving the deadliest climb she has ever faced.

The answer comes with a terrifying discovery that puts her life on the line. Forced to trust her kidnapper in order to stay alive, Sabine embarks on a journey of harsh truths. Nothing is as it seems back in the palace among the clouds—especially the man she married. On the run, Sabine and her unlikely ally seek refuge in Avoni—the kingdom known for its warring assassin guilds. The farther they go, the more hazardous their journey becomes as new enemies emerge. When unwanted feelings start to develop and secrets are uncovered, Sabine realizes there is no one she can trust but herself. As Rainer’s wife, Sabine is nothing more than a pawn in a deadly political game that is decades in the making. When Rainer makes his next move, hinting at war, Sabine is ready with a countermove—and little does Rainer know, the pawn has become the queen, and she has no intention of losing with the stakes this high.
