Required Reading

Life is complicated enough without getting into hotwater with federal agencies so: TAKE NOTE Many things I review I received at no charge in exchange for an honest review. Consider this as informing you that ALL things I review may have been gotten at no charge. Realistically about 40% but in order to keep things above board just assume that I got the stuff free. I do not collect information on my readers. If cookies or other tracking stuff is used on my blogs it is due to BLOGGER not ME. Apparently the European Union's new rules state I need to inform you if cookies are being use. If they are it isn't byu me, consider yourself INFORMED.
Words like, “sponsored,” “promotion,” “paid ad” or even just “ad” are clear ways to disclose that you’re being paid to share information and links so BE AWARE that some of what I write can be described as an AD by the government. BTW I will NEVER say a product is great, super or even acceptable if it isn't, whether I got it free or NOT!

The Emperor’s Edge Collection by Lindsay Buroker

This is books 1, 2 and 3.  Buroker has the enviable distinction of being to evoke emotion.   Buroker has also crafted a strong, resourceful female protagonist in Amaranthe.   Amaranthe is still trying to clear her name.  She has successfully crafted a team to protect the emperor even if the emperor doesn't know it.  



Describing them selves as self employed mercenaries (is that redundant?), Amaranthe leads a motley crew.  Sicarius, the infamous assassin, Books, the discredited scholar, Akstyr, the wanna be sorcerer and street gang member, Basilard, a former pit fighter and Maldynado, the dis-inherited noble are her mixed bag team.     The very young emperor is a good soul surrounded by miscreants of the highest order. 

After saving the empire from several threats the team hopes to gain the notice of the emperor in a positive manner and get the bounties placed on their heads removed.  

The third book ends with a surprising request from the emperor.

I really enjoyed this series and recommend it.    


This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
