This gripping third installment in a thrilling fantasy series explores the depths of ambition, power, and the cost of sacrificing one's soul for it, perfect for fans of J.R.R Tolkien, George R.R Martin, and Brandon Sanderson.
This personally is my favorite novel in the series. The first two take place in Terranor, the continent of the three kingdoms. This one introduces the reader to an entirely new place, Karadria, with its own politics and tensions.
It expands the world in many ways, introduces new characters, answers many questions, and sets up the rest of the series.
When writing in a fantasy series, the middle books can be tough to get right. You need to pace yourself, not revealing too much and spoiling the ending. However, you can’t keep everything secret and wind up with a boring novel the reader needs to just get through.
In The Isolated Vizier, I have strived to turn up the tension while resolving many conflicts. By the end, you will be more excited than before to see what happens next.
The book launches on February 1st, but you can pre-order it right now to get it delivered to your Kindle when it’s ready.
In anticipation of this launch, I will be sharing more about the Karadrian nations and people, so subscribe to this newsletter to get these updates.
