In a rigidly hierarchical Elizabethan world where magic has been ruthlessly stamped out, a spy treads a dangerous path. The Corhonase citadel is a place of virtue and debauchery-and deadly secrets. For the Laurentine spies embedded there, every day brings danger. Nothing is as it seems, whether in the salons of the nobles' court or the catacombs beneath the citadel. Saliel has many secrets. Her spying is one, her past as a pickpocket in Laurent's slums is another, but her most deeply guarded secret is the magic she possesses. She walks a narrow path between discovery as a spy and being burned as a witch. With a sadistic spycatcher closing in, Saliel and her fellow spies are tested to the limits of their endurance. In the fight to stay alive, the magic that would send Saliel to the bonfire may be their only hope of survival. A lush and richly atmospheric fantasy novel, intricately plotted and suspenseful, and above all, romantic.

Johannes Cabal returns in this fearfully funny and terrifically twisted tale of murder and international intrigue . . . five thousand feet off the ground. When an attempt to steal a rare book turns sour, Johannes Cabal, a necromancer of some little infamy, finds himself in a foreign prison awaiting execution. A crafty plan -- as horrific as it is cunning -- allows him to steal the identity of a government official and make his escape aboard a luxurious aeroship heading out of the country. But what should be a perfect getaway rapidly becomes complicated by the bizarre disappearance of a passenger, an attempt on Cabal's life, and an unwelcome face from the past. Trapped aboard with a killer, can even Cabal's open-razor of a mind save him? Full of twists, turns, sword fights, archenemies, newfangled flying machines, narrow escapes, and, of course, resurrected dead, Johannes Cabal’s latest eldritch escapade is a Ruritanian romp from first to last.
