She left a slave. She returns a conqueror.

As an Adept, Reiva blasts fire from her hands and leaps over walls. But when her first solo mission leaves her half-dead amidst a heap of massacred allies, she gets just one chance at redemption.

The Empire orders her to crush the one kingdom she thought she would never see again: Talynis, the land of her birth, the land she left in chains.

Standing in her way is the Wolf, a vicious assassin hellbent on killing Adepts-and a single cut from his cursed blade will destroy Reiva's magic forever.

Even if she can survive, victory may come at a price too high to pay...

The Empire's Lion is an epic military fantasy filled with action and intrigue set in a war-torn, magic-filled world.
