THE TIDE LORDS: BOOK ONE From the bestselling author of Medalon and Wolfblade comes an outstanding new epic fantasy quartet.
'He's insisting he's a tide Lord and he's begging us to try again ... to kill him, that is.' When a routine hanging goes wrong, the survivor announces he is Cayal the Immortal Prince, a tide Lord. However, the only known record of the immortal beings of Amyrantha is the tide Lord tarot ... and everyone knows it is just a parlour-game, an amusement. Arkady Desean, an expert on the legends of the Crasii - a part-animal, part-human race - is sent to interrogate Cayal. But, in exposing this would-be immortal, Arkady's own web of deceit threatens to unravel. Nothing is really as it seems around the Immortal Prince. the lies seem plausible, his stories improbable ... and the truth is more than any of them bargained for.

      First in the Tide Lords series, this complex saga, like Fallon’s earlier Hythrun Chronicles, intertwines several vividly realized plots. One follows Arkady Desean, the “Ice Duchess” of Lebec and a scholar of ancient Amyranthan lore, as she interrogates Cayal, a hanged man who inexplicably did not die. She soon encounters legends of the immortal Tide Lords who created the human-animal hybrid slaves called the Crasii—canines to serve, felines to fight, amphibians to pull watercraft—and a thousand years earlier caused the Cataclysm that nearly destroyed the world. Arkady’s husband, Duke Stellan, guards his own deadly secret as he maneuvers through palace intrigues and inter-kingdom clashes. Royal spymaster Declan Hawkes secretly aids renegade Crasii and preserves the Cabal, humanity’s only protection from the Tide Lords. With snappy dialogue and deft characterizations, especially of her sympathetically drawn canine Crasii, Fallon neatly pulls the story threads together into a multihued tapestry of myth, deceit and ambition.
