Book Description

April 2024 Reader's Favorite, BooksShelf.com Cover Contest • April 2024 Top Choice, BooksShelf.com • November 2023 Editor's Choice, BooksShelf.com In the absence of the Guardian of Maarihk, the Usurper's venom has extended beyond the Gulf of Braag, seeding unrest and hatred for all things Maarihkish. Natharr and the Knights of Ril must overcome malice and the ramifications of Ellis the Elder's boundless past that even Sight cannot reveal. The Rilari stand alone in a world in turmoil as they discover the tremendous reach of the Usurper's vizier. Even the endowments of the Daemons of Order are unable to withstand the ravages of fighting to survive on Rilari loyalties. Meanwhile, Nathan and his summoned companion must rely on the teachings of both Natharr and Quiet One to carve out their place in the Maarihk Empire. Skill with a sword is only the beginning of their treacherous path, as fraught with peril as Darshelle's as she flees the animus of the ancient wood. Reviews • 5/5 Stars — “Rilari [is] an emotional odyssey that will leave you breathless. Buckle up for a story that throws you headfirst into the world of the Rilari, where humanity’s fate rests on the shoulders of a courageous, yet relatable, leader – Natharr, Guardian of Maarihk and Knight-Marshal of the Knights of Ril (a.k.a the Rilari). Kilpack masterfully crafts Natharr as a hero brimming with both strength and vulnerability. He’s a leader who inspires with his bravery, lightens the mood with his cheeky side, and grapples with his own emotions, particularly with his relationships. Chapter 13, aptly titled “Well Come,” stands out as a prime example of Kilpack’s exceptional writing. The descriptions of the Knights of Ril facing their adversaries are so vivid, you’ll feel the chill of cold rain, the steel of battle tactics and the agony of loss alongside them. Dive into the New Blood Saga, and I assure you, you won’t be disappointed. I loved the book!” — Jose F. Nodar, author of Books, Pens & Larceny (South Wales, Australia) • 5/5 Stars — “Rilari thrilled, shocked, and entertained me from the very first page! Utterly brilliant!
