A Knife of Oblivion — Kate Avery Ellison

Brace yourselves for book 8 in the beloved Kingmakers' War series perfect for fans of An Ember in the Ashes, Throne of Glass, and Game of Thrones! Political intrigue. Assassination attempts. And two sworn enemies working together to bring home the one they both love... War is in the air. So is sorrow. And betrayal. Thief-queen and dragonsayer Briand Varryda is presumed dead, killed by a vengeful dragon during her fight to save the capital city of Nyr from Eisea's trickery, and her friends are stunned with grief. Kael throws himself into his duties as captain of the guard, Cait struggles to rally the thieves in Gillspin, and Prince Jehn navigates an ever-tightening web of deception, misdirection, and simmering attraction when it comes to his wife, the ruthless queen of Nyr. Briand's death has torn a hole in everything. But when a former enemy learns that Briand is still alive, he partners with Kael and the Monarchists to rescue the dragonsayer from the far reaches of a distant continent and bring her home.
