Book description
The Drowning City: home to exiles and expatriates, pirates and
smugglers. And violent revolutionaries who will stop at nothing to
overthrow the corrupt Imperial government. For Isyllt Iskaldur,
necromancer and spy, the brewing revolution is a chance to prove herself
to her crown. All she has to do is find and finance the revolutionaries,
and help topple the palaces of Symir. But she is torn between her new
friends and her duties, and the longer she stays in this
monsoon-drenched city, the more intrigue she uncovers - even the dead
are plotting. As the waters rise and the dams crack, Isyllt must choose
between her mission and the city she came to save. Amanda was born in
Virginia and, after travelling widely, she was sucked into the gravity
well of Texas and hasn't managed to escape. Yet. She has a BA in English
Lit, and is now a bookstore minion while writing and beast-herding her
many animals full time. She lives near Austin.
