About this ebook

An enforcer wanted dead for crimes she didn’t commit... 

An assassin wanted dead for crimes he did commit…

Normally, they would be enemies, but they both seek the same thing: exoneration.

Unfortunately, a nefarious underground organization is attempting to kill the one man who could grant it to them, the emperor. If they want to win their freedom, they’ll have to battle powerful wizards, outscheme master schemers, and defeat bloodthirsty monsters, all while dodging friendly fire and evading the law. Exoneration isn’t easy.

This boxed set includes the first three novels in this high fantasy adventure series: The Emperor’s Edge, Dark Currents, and Deadly Games. The books are recommended for fans of epic fantasy, sword & sorcery, and steampunk.

Ratings and reviews

Not a masterpiece by any means, but I thoroughly enjoyed this swashbuckling trilogy. A simple, fun, adventure story about a group of outcasts, none quite fit into society for different reasons. Led by a strong female, backed by a notorious assassin, the team take on wrong doers to protect the emporer. Minor background romance which I did cheer on, but also it's quite nice leaving in the background and focus on the storyline.

Been a long time since I've felt this enthralled by a series. I dread the day when I finish reading all the books and short stories within the Emperor's Edge, yet I can't stop myself from reading page after exciting page. The characters are interesting and loveable, the dialogue witty and sharp, and the plot twists and turns in wonderfully delightful ways. Lindsey Buroker is a remarkable author, and I can't wait to check out more of her stories!

I love that the read aloud option exists in these ebooks. Just getting that out up front. The computer reading voice doesn't detract for me and it allows me to read hands-free. Ms. Buroker's tale-weaving is delightful, enveloping and thoroughly entertaining. Her characters are well-developed with understandable motivations for their specific quirks. I can't buy her books fast enough. Thank you, Ms. Buroker, for making this your career. Your readers appreciate you.
