Synopsis

The smarts and action of the spy thrillers meet the magic and worldbuilding of fantasy in this thrilling Eberron series. Nyrielle Tam—better known by her code name, Thorn—is a Dark Lantern sent undercover to a summit in the monstrous kingdom of Droaam. The kingdom is washed with unrest, as the beasts of Droaam have organized and demand recognition from the kingdoms of Khorvaire. As a secret envoy of Breland, one of the five nations of Khorvaire, Thorn’s mission in Droaam is to gauge her neighbors' reaction to the new state's demands of equality—and to take the opportunity to recover something long ago stolen by the mysterious Sheshka, Queen of the Medusas. Caught in the middle of the conflict and tasked with a perilous side-quest, it's up to Thorn to accomplish her mission while keeping her king and country out of war.
