Ashok K. Banker

Returning to Ashok K. Banker’s Burnt Empire Saga for the climactic end of a series that the Los Angeles Times called “vividly evocative.”

The Blind King's Wrath

Sophia 

"I love you" she said, dabbing away the tears from her eye. 

"I love you too,” Vensera said. "May Mother Jeel go with you, my child.”

Krushni nodded to her father, Gwann, who acknowledged her and said, "End it, Krushni. End it." 

She had no truck with patriarchy; if anything, she trampled over it. 

To her, this was a chance to bring out her Behai side, the wild, wanton, anything-goes sword maiden who lived for the hunt, the melee, the battle by moonlight. The Behai regarded war as a celebration. 

After all, a daughter or son who turned against their father was no different from a rabid dog that turned against its mother. 

And like rabid dogs, they must be put down.

I am so sad this is the last book. My only critique is what I wish there was MORE. There were so many people I wanted to hear from and how their ending turns out. The way the book ended was really good - a nice conclusion. But I wasn’t ready for it to be over!! 

I especially loved how QUEER this book is! The first two - not really. Like not at all. But THIS one?! Incredible. 

AMAZING!!!!
