The Copper Promise
Book One of The Copper Cat Trilogy
by Jen Williams
Fantasy | 535 Pages | Published by Headline in 2014
“He’d felt the movement of the scaled soldiers in his own blood, felt the rise of the creature called Y’Ruen into the sunlight for the first time in millenia. If he closed his eyes for more than a few seconds he could almost see them; the shining crystal of their swords streaked with blood, the skies over Creos a baleful orange as everything burned.”
~ p. 101, The Copper Promise by Jen Williams
| Synopsis |
There are some tall stories about the caverns beneath the Citadel – about magic and mages and monsters and gods.
Wydrin of Crosshaven has heard them all, but she’s spent long enough trawling caverns and taverns with her companion Sir Sebastian to learn that there’s no money to be made in chasing rumours.
But then a crippled nobleman with a dead man’s name offers them a job: exploring the Citadel’s darkest depths. It sounds like just another quest with gold and adventure … if they’re lucky, they might even have a tale of their own to tell once it’s over.
But these reckless adventurers will soon learn that sometimes there is truth in rumour: Sometimes a story can save your life.

Whilst this one doesn’t really appeal to me, I have to agree with the others who have commented on the great cover art and your chosen teaser lines, which are intriguing and very descriptive, if slightly disconcerting and destructively violent.
Thanks for sharing and enjoy the rest of the book 🙂
