The follow up to the award winning The Last Blade Priest. Growing tensions between the Mirolene Empire and the League threaten the stability of the world, spreading fear and mistrust across the land.

Princess Syzenne’s attitude is famed across the kingdom, but she’s hiding a secret. She’s a Scourge - a powerful being armed with terrifying abilities at her fingertips. And as political tensions come to a head, it turns out she may not be the only one with the potential to change the world…&nbsp; The Dead Man’s Empire revisits the characters and the trials of The Last Blade Priest, adding powerful new characters and plot twists into the growing crisis that is sweeping the world.

An innovative grimdark fantasy, with expansive world-building, powerful female characters and political intrigue, for fans of Brandon Sanderson and Scott Lynch. The follow up to the award winning The Last Blade Priest. Two in the eye of the storm. Two in touch with the end. Syzenne. A princess? Or a mere bargaining chip in a contest between two powers? Duna.

As blood-thirsty elves sweep the land, as religions crumble and rumours spread of an empire of the dead revived it is two young women who hold the key.

Wiles has created an epic fantasy of incredible richness and originality. A celebration of the genre and breath of fresh air.

The Dead Man's Empire

In this unique collection of essays, published writers offer an intimate view of how their work has been informed, shaped and transformed by their literary, political, philosophical or personal influences. Providing models of the critical commentaries that all students of creative writing must write, each essay from contemporary authors of fiction, creative non-fiction, poetry, scripts and digital writing demonstrates how what writers write is determined by what they have read, and what they read is then determined by what they are writing. As writers reflect on their process of moving from sources of inspiration to a finished and original piece of writing, they reveal their anxieties, passions, discoveries and motivations, offering fascinating insights into the imagination's journey. Introductory chapters explore why writers reflect on their own work, and place this practice in wider contexts, offering theoretical frameworks for understanding process, influence, and inspiration. As illuminating for aspiring writers as it is for students reflecting on their research and process as part of writing courses, Creative Writing and the Critical Commentary will change the way writers talk about and engage with other texts.

Reflection, Influence, Process

Creative Writing and the Critical Commentary

“‘But who are we, if we forget everything that came before?’ Roza wonders in&nbsp;The Jilted Countess. This moving story of one woman finding a new life and new love in the aftermath of WWII answers this question, in the process taking on themes of PTSD, communism, and the plight of being an immigrant in postwar America.”—Meg Waite Clayton, internationally bestselling author of&nbsp;Typewriter BeachIn the aftermath of World War II, a young Hungarian émigré jilted by a G.I. persuades a Midwestern newspaper editor to help her find an American husband in this poignant novel, based on a true story, from the author of The French Winemaker’s Daughter.The war stole Roza Meszaros’s dreams of becoming a ballerina and her aristocratic family’s fortune. But the penniless Hungarian countess’s fate takes a hopeful turn when she meets an American soldier named Joe, who promises to marry her and take her to the States. After two years of waiting to obtain the necessary money and paperwork to emigrate, Roza finally arrives in Minnesota—and discovers Joe has married someone else.Determined to stay in America, Roza turns to popular newspaper columnist Cedric Adams to help her find a suitable husband. Sharing Roza’s story and her picture, Adams makes a special plea to his military readers. The response is overwhelming—nearly 1,800 World War II veterans bombard the paper’s offices with telegrams, flowers, candy, and cash, “a world-record” for marriage proposals, Adams tells Roza.Like a 1948 version of The Bachelorette, Roza ultimately chooses Finn Erickson, a former soldier and railroad locomotive engineer. Putting aside her romantic ideals, she and her new husband settle into the small riverside town of Red Wing, Minnesota. But when Roza unexpectedly runs into her former fiancé, things quickly become complicated.A captivating and unusual tale of love, loss, finding yourself, and creating your destiny, The Jilted Countess examines the meaning of marriage, the American dream, and what it takes to face our demons while searching for happiness.&nbsp;

The Jilted Countess

A woman's desperate flight from an Apache raid unfolds into a sweeping tale of the Mexico-US border wars. Now I Surrender is the epic, darkly funny and action-packed story of the legendary Apache warrior Geronimo and how the American West was 'won'. 'Álvaro Enrigue's one of the best we have, and he's not done pushing against conventions' NEW YORK TIMES 'An impassioned anti-imperialist lament, a gripping alt-western' TLS In the contested borderlands between Mexico and the United States, a Mexican woman flees into the desert after a devastating raid on her dead husband's ranch. Meanwhile, a lieutenant colonel of the fledgling Republic, sent in pursuit of cattle rustlers, will soon discover he's on the trail of a more dramatic abduction. Decades later, with political ambitions on the line, the American and Mexican militaries try to manoeuvre Geronimo, the most legendary of Apache warriors, into surrender. And in our own day, a family travels through the region in search of a truer version of the past. Now I Surrender is Álvaro Enrigue's most expansive and impassioned novel yet. Part epic, part alt-Western, it weaves past and present, myth and history, into a searing elegy for a way of life that was an incarnation of true liberty - that still sparks in us the thrill of almost unimaginable freedom. Translated by Natasha Wimmer 'Enrigue is an erudite, charismatic raconteur' THE ATLANTIC 'A moving and complex love letter to Mexico... a slice of bloody American history with a timely edge' LOS ANGELES TIMES
