In crossing Togril Vloth, the ruthless leader of Teranors most powerful thieves guild, bounty huntress Argentia Dasani has made a dangerous mistake. Now she is learning that the Guildmasters memory is longand that the reach of his vengeance is longer still. After failing to kill Argentia, Vloth has sent twin assassins with a cunning plan: abduct her butler, Ikabod, as bait in a deadly game of cat-and-mouse. Playing not only for her own life but Ikabods as well, Argentia teams up with a very unlikely group of allies to take the fight to Vloth and his minions. As the desperate chase to rescue Ikabod leads from the streets of Argo through the sewers of Telarban to the Ice Reaches of Frijd, one thing becomes all too clear: not everyone who runs the Guildmasters gauntlet will live to see its end.

No good deed goes unpunished . . . When Artelo Sterling rode forth to rescue Argentia Dasani from the mad wizard Mouradian, he knew he would face grave danger on the Isle of Elsmywr. He never imagined he was leaving an even greater danger behind him. Returning home to find his daughter Aura kidnapped, the knight seeks aid from the Crown and her Archamagus. They discover that Aura’s captor is a demoness loosed from the Fel Pits. It has plans for the child it has taken—plans that Aura likely will not survive. Desperate, Artelo demands Argentia’s help. She has fought demons before. She had killed demons before. She is the best tracker he knows. But the bounty huntress, burned and broken by her ordeal on Elsmywr, is in no condition to help anyone. She will need to find herself before she can find Artelo’s daughter, and there may not be time for that...

A Blast from the Past... Bounty huntress Argentia Dasani thought she’d seen the last of Al’Atin Erkani when she locked him in the dungeons of Castle Aventar. Three years later, the thief has escaped and is on the run with a token of unspeakable power: a magic lamp that is a prison for an elemental monster whose sole desire is to raze the world to ruin. Tasked to recapture Erkani and recover the lamp, Argentia and her friends follow a trail of death and destruction the likes of which they have never seen before. Hope hinges on a scrap of prophecy and a mystical artifact created to counter the power of the lamp, but time is running short. As the hunt ranges from the docks of Harrowgate to the deserts of Makhara, it becomes clear to Argentia that her enemy is more powerful, callous, and insane than any she has ever faced. Will all her vaunted skill and luck be enough to stop Erkani, or will she and the rest of Acrevast burn in the fires of the aefryt’s lamp?

Would you kill for your art? Would it kill for you? A painter who kills with blood-tinged pigment. A tattoo artist with a dark past who treats with demons. A sculptor on Venus who carves his life’s history into ice at the cost of his sanity. A ceramic vase that might avenge the life of a murder victim. A haunted song that drives listeners to kill. Art surrounds us. It entertains and nurtures. And for some it can do far more. It can protect a family over generations or bridge the boundary between the realms of the living and the dead. It can be a curse or a boon, a path to riches or to damnation. In Artifice and Craft, speculative fiction authors Lyndsay E. Gilbert, Laura E. Price, Adam Stemple, Brian K. Lowe, James R. Tuck, Briana Una McGuckin, Jordan Davidson, James Maxey, Madeline Dau, Joel Armstrong, C.E. Murphy, Mark Painter, Alex Bledsoe, Alethea Kontis, Gerri Leen, and Jelena Dunato craft tales of art and artistry that are shaded with the supernatural, tuned to the fantastic, and glazed with the unexpected. So listen, watch, admire. But don’t touch, and don’t turn your back. Because these works of art are far more than they seem.
