Description
BOOK 2 of the WITCH OF EMPIRE series. Demons and serial killers are Iona “Sully” Sullivan’s bread and butter, but nothing could have prepared her to face off against the full weight of the British Empire at the height of its power. With the War for American Independence in full swing, she finds even her prodigious talents pushed beyond their limits when citizens of the American Colonies begin vanishing amidst rumors of crop circles, hydra sightings and worse. Through a wild and lethal adventure that will see her clashing with the Empire around the world and beyond, the only constants in Sully’s life are an undead girlfriend, a giant demon crow that has taken a shine to her, regular assassination attempts by enemies on all sides, and the cold certainty that nothing and nobody is going to make it out of the war in one piece.
A Note From the Publisher
Advance Praise
Praise for BOOK 1 (The Year of the Knife):
The Lesbian Review – “Top 100 Lesbian Vacation Novels”
Gill Chedgey, Nudge Books (4 stars) – “Agent Sully … is a kick ass heroine, a kind of adult Harry Potter meets Katniss Everdene and is the tour de force that drives this novel along.… The writing is fast paced, imaginative with an underlying intelligence that gives credence to the infrastructure of the magical aspects of crime and policing.”
Indiepicks Magazine – “Fans of urban fantasy, stories featuring LGBT characters, or even just those looking for a fun and energetic read are highly encouraged to give it a look.”
The Lesbian Review – “The Year of the Knife was a good book and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a a fast-paced tale, a little magic or perhaps some alternate history. I enjoyed GD Penman’s ease at storytelling and I’ll definitely look for more works by the author in the future."
Gareth L. Powell, BSFA award-winning author of Ack-Ack Macaque – “An addictive blend of magic and murder noir.”
Robyn Bennis, author of The Guns Above – “Penman writes with the wit and charm of a foul-mouthed Terry Pratchett. His Agent Sully is what Dirty Harry would be if he was a lesbian witch fighting demons alongside the cast of Yes, Minister. She can be my date to the Imperial Bureau of Investigation Ball anytime.”
