Triskell: A Novel of the Six Kingdoms

by Bruce Fergusson

The man who calls himself Scalda Saig created his legend in but a night and day, rousing the people of Keshkevar's capitol city to insurrection against their hated Skarrian overlords by doing what no one in over a thousand years had ever done.
Falca Breks knows the new Sanctor of Keshkevar by his real name, Lambrey Tallon; knows he never did what he claimed; knows all about the vile man and his criminal past, in fact, because Falca was the one to send him to prison years before in far-away Lucidor. He also knows where there's evidence to prove that Scalda Saig is still the shit-smear he's always been.
Falca and others have a plan to restore Keshkevar's Labrys Throne to its rightful the Demizell Cyalla. They could use a little more help, however...such as an army.
Instead, they get a young woman from Falca's Shar Stakeen, a beautiful and deadly shadden who'd once been paid handsomely to kill him. She is the last person he expects to see, since she died at a place called Scaldasaig.
But she is very much alive—and she's not alone.
