Bane of Serpents

By Todd Marcelas Moreno

"Bane of Serpents" is the sequel in the second trilogy of the Lords of Legan series, where ruthlessness and murder are not only standard tools of intrigue and statecraft, but also accepted instruments of justice for the wronged and of defense for the innocent. Despite a level of death and destruction not seen in Voxny since House Morays ascended to power, the viscounty's ruling House is still no closer to naming a new leader than when open hostilities began. Defeated by those who kidnapped his cousin to control her family's vast holdings, Warren Morays remains in hiding. Captured by Humanity First, an organization dedicated to eradicating all psychic power, Ansel Crispir n lies helpless under torture. Relying on an imposter, Laimia Morays has meanwhile restored her financial preeminence, thereby regaining her prestige and ability to buy political influence. In self-imposed exile, her daughter Lind also lobbies for political support, aiming to prevent her mother from garnering enough votes in the coming Concilium to become the next reigning viscountess of Voxny.And in the political turmoil, other ambitious Houses bound by vows of fealty to House Morays silently advance their own venomous designs. Some falsely pledge allegiance to other Houses equally ready to betray them in return. Some conspire to promote their joint interests while others merely plot for the downfall of hated foes. Surrounded by oathbreakers on all sides, this leaves those in Voxny with one vital question: Whom can one trust?
