Download or read book Eva Thorne written by Lorel Clayton and published by Lorel Clayton. This book was released on 2021-10-18 with total page 898 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fun, clever fantasy with an epic ending! “I hated the late shift. I hated the morning shift too. If only I could make a living doing something I enjoyed, like yelling and intimidating people.” The surly Eva Thorne is a born detective when she’s not playing the femme fatale, but it takes her brother’s murder to set her on a hunt for clues. What she discovers brings her up against a powerful slave-trading cartel, dark gods, and worst of all her twin sister. In a city of elvish masters and matriarchal dwarves where humans have no rights, the only people on her side are an illegally freed slave, a senile nanny, and an ex-almost-boyfriend. But even when she nearly loses her job and almost loses her head in a sword fight on the same night, she isn’t deterred. It’s when the nanny goes missing that she really starts to worry. For the first time, the first 4 books of the Eva Thorne series are available in a digital box set - at the best price ever! The Eva Thorne series begins with a murder and culminates in the war that will end the world. Twisting the norms of high fantasy, mystery, and steampunk into a witty mixture of humor and romance, this series is an action-packed adventure worth taking. Magic and machines can't stand against the God of Death, and humans are on the run from the god's invasion. Highcrowne is the only refuge, but that means living in the Outskirts of an ancient city ruled by Avian mages, indifferent dwarves, and elves who'd prefer to see humans as their slaves. Eva is a relentless, kick-ass heroine unafraid of confronting kings, monsters, or gods, but she is a Thorne—the worst of the hated Solhan race. Her family summoned the Dead God into the world to grant them ultimate power, and secret parts of her desire power as well. The battle between her dark, Solhan nature and her desire to leave behind her family’s legacy of necromancy and tyranny is what drives her. Never one to meet others’ expectations, she fights fate at every turn. But as she is forced to make one difficult decision after another, she wonders if anyone can escape their destiny. "A fantastical twist on mystery, brimming with action-packed adventure and a sense of clever fun." -Elizabeth Spann Craig, Bestselling Mystery Author “I picked this up and just could not put it down until I finished! …If you like Mystery, Romance, and Fantasy this book has it all!” – Terry’s Book Addiction “An enjoyable, fantastic read!” – Pearl, #1 Best Goodreads Reviewer

Book Synopsis Tangle of Thornes by : Lorel Clayton
Download or read book Tangle of Thornes written by Lorel Clayton and published by Lorel Clayton. This book was released on 2015-02-02 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Eva's brother is murdered, she is forced to investigate the crime herself. What she discovers brings her up against a powerful slave-trading cartel, dark gods, and worst of all her twin sister. In a city of elvish masters and matriarchal dwarves where humans have no rights, the only people on her side are an illegally-freed slave, a senile nanny, and an ex-almost-boyfriend. But even when she nearly loses her job and almost loses her head in a sword fight on the same night, she isn’t deterred. It’s when the nanny goes missing that she really starts to worry. Femme fatale turns hard-boiled investigator in this first Eva Thorne novel. Set in a world where magic and machines can't stand against the God of Death, humans are on the run from the god's invasion. Highcrowne is the only refuge, but that means living in the Outskirts of an ancient city ruled by Avian mages, indifferent dwarves, and elves who'd prefer to see humans as their slaves. It's worst for Eva's people, Solhans, because they were the ones who summoned the Dead God into the world. No one wants her kind in Highcrowne and there are plenty who would be happy to see her brother dead. There are too many motives and not enough time to unravel the mystery, because other people are dying—and Eva is fast running out of vacation time. "A fantastical twist on mystery, brimming with action-packed adventure and a sense of clever fun." -Elizabeth Spann Craig, Bestselling Mystery Author
Download or read book Nest of Thornes written by Lorel Clayton and published by Lorel Clayton. This book was released on 2024-06-15 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eva Thorne saved the world but hopes no one remembers when she returns to Highcrowne six years later to start a new life. Low key this time. Right. All she ever wanted was some independence, including the freedom to knock bad guys in the head when needed, but the private investigator gig never worked out for her. She has no choice but to try, yet again, when the Elf Queen commands her to track down the political rival plotting her assassination—there’s no proof but the queen knows someone wants her dead. As if that wasn’t already the antithesis of a low-key case, the first egg produced by their near-extinct Avian rulers in centuries is stolen. Only the famed Eva Thorne can solve the case. No one understands that she’s not the same person she used to be. She’s been learning necromancy, not detective work, and they won’t think so highly of her when they realize she tried to bring back the God of Death, who they all fought so hard to defeat in the first place.
