Nothing is more damning than a deal with death. In lawless Haven, a fearsome reputation means safety. Wielding necromantic powers not only keeps Hashi Severn alive, but provides a comfortable life, a seat on the Haven Council of Lords, and the opportunity to indulge her passion for history. No one willingly crosses the woman who wields the dreadful obsidian dagger, Soul Drinker. That is, until Jhavika Keshmir attempts a coup, destroying Hashi’s painstakingly structured existence. Now Hashi must embrace what she’s avoided for years—alliance. Only together can the surviving council members prevail in a war against an army of enscorcelled slaves.

Author
From the sea to the stars, Chris A. Jackson’s stories take you to the far reaches of the imagination. Raised on the back deck of a fishing boat and trained as a marine biologist, he became sidetracked by a career in biomedical research, but regained his heart and soul in 2009 when he and his wife Anne left the dock aboard the 45-foot sailboat Mr Mac to cruise the Caribbean and write fulltime. With his nautical background, writing sea stories seemed inevitable for Chris. His acclaimed Scimitar Seas nautical fantasies won three consecutive Gold Medals in the ForeWord Reviews Book of the Year Awards. His Pathfinders Tales from Paizo Publishing combine high-seas combat and romance set in the award-winning world of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. Not to be outdone, Privateer Press released Blood & Iron, a swashbuckling novella set in the Iron Kingdoms. Chris’ repertoire also includes the award-winning and Kindle best-selling Weapon of Flesh Series, the contemporary urban fantasy Dragon Dreams, as well as additional fantasy novels, the humorous sci fi Cheese Runners trilogy of novellas, and numerous short stories.
