Type: Short Story
Genre: Action/Adventure/Steampunk
Price: $0.99
Grade: A+
This Emperor's Edge short story features Amaranthe and Sicarius and is nail-bitingly exciting. When Amaranthe sees a potential good deed to be done, she jumps at the idea. When those they are chasing flee to a mysterious island, suddenly Sicarius apprehensive. Though Amarathe is surprised by this reaction she does't let it stop her, but perhaps she should have.
This story is a bit more dark and mystical then the other EE stories, but it works very well. I found this to be my favorite of the EE short stories so far, and I hope it will hold over all EE fans until book 4 comes out! And any Sicarius fans will love this story for a myriad of reasons, of which you will have to find out for yourself!

Encrypted by Lindsay Buroker
Type: Novel
Genre: Fantasy/Action/Adventure/Steampunk
Price: $3.95
Grade: A+
A stand alone novel set in the same world as the Emperor's Edge series, this book will appeal to fantasy, sci-fi and puzzle fiends. With it's usal nail-biting action, fight scenes, mysteries to solve, and loveable characters, this is a book I'd recommend to anyone who has enjoyed Lindsay's work before, or anyone who hasn't.
Though it takes place chronologically before The Emperor's Edge, this book can be read at any point and enjoyed (even if you haven't read EE yet). We get to see some of the Kyatt islands, as well as get to know the peaceful and scientific Kyattese people and the stark contrast they pose with the Turgonians. This book has more elements of science fiction in it than most of Lindsay's books, but die hard fantasy fans will not find it displeasing.
And, if you need extra incentive, we get to see our favorite assassin as a teenager in this story (although that does not make him any less deadly) and find out the origins of his favorite black dagger.
