[Vensille Saga 01] • A Gathering of Fools

Betrayal was always a risk; revenge is the only choice. In the Imperial court, intrigue and death lurk in every shadow.

Ruined and imprisoned, Marrinek is lost and forgotten, stripped of honour and position. Freed by shipwreck, will he choose the safety of exile or seek revenge against the most powerful people in the Empire?

The twins Floost and Darek hide amongst the rooftops of Vensille and scrape a living from the streets. Living in fear of the gangs, the watch and the dark remnants of the slave trade, they dream of escape and safety.

Adrava skulks in a remote seminary, fearful of her husband's enemies. But his escape awakens Adrava's thirst for vengeance, tempting her forth to seek the husband she hasn't seen for two years.
