Nyphron Rising
Michael J.
Sullivan |
|
A puppet is crowned. The true heir
remains hidden. A
rogue's
secret could change everything.
|
|
War has
come to Melengar. To save her kingdom, Princess Arista
runs a desperate gamble when she defies her brother and
hires Royce and Hadrian for a dangerous mission. As the
power of the Nyphron Empire grows, so does Royce's
suspicion that the wizard Esrahaddon is using the
thieves as pawns in his own game. To find the truth, he
must unravel the secret of Hadrian's past...what he
discovers could change end their friendship.
Nyphron Rising is the third book
in the captivating Riyria Revelations. Instead of a
string of sequels this six-book fantasy series was
conceived as a single epic tale divided into individual
episodes. All were written before the first was released
so that plot elements are intertwined, yet each book has
its only story and conclusion.
NOTE: Nyphron
Rising is permanently out of print as a stand alone
book and will now be included in the Orbit (Fantasy
Imprint of Hachette Book Group) Omnibus edition: Rise of
Empire.

"Mr. Sullivan brings back a type of
story that's had very little presence in this genre in
the last twenty years or more. I, for one, wish him much
success and hope his career is a long one. Making
swashbuckling tales popular again creates more excellent
choices for fantasy readers." -- Greg Hersom, Fantasy
Literature
"Michael J. Sullivan is not a
surprise for me anymore, but an author that already
established his place within the fantasy genre. "Nyphron
Rising", like Sullivan's previous novels, offers an
adventurous tale and a captivating story, returning to
the roots and values of the classical fantasy." --

Reviews
"The second half of the book, is
amazing and probably constitutes Mr. Sullivan's
strongest work yet...Nyphron Rising is another capable
installment in a fantastic series. Fans of the Riyria
Revelations will not be disappointed." --
Speculative Fiction
Junkie
"Nyphron Rising is a great story --
a fun plot with new characters and plenty of action!
Sullivan's writing style is easy to follow and the story
is complex enough to be exciting, but not so complex
that you have to keep backtracking to remember who’s who
and what happened when.--
John
Hulet, Fantasy Literature
"Sullivan ramps up all his long-arc
plot threads, gives us more small wavering glimpses at
the future, and tells us another rip-roaring yarn worthy
of even the best fireside storyteller. A Triumph! I've
said it before and I'll say it again. If you haven't
been reading Michael J. Sullivan's Ryria Revelations
series, you are missing out. Go grab them today here and
set out on a voyage of adventure and intrigue.--
