Overthrowing a king is a bloody job. Field Marshall Tamas’s coup has sent the corrupt aristocracy to the guillotine and food to the hungry. It has also provoked a war with the Nine Nations, internal attacks by royalists, and a frenzied fight for money and power by those Tamas considered allies: the Church, the workers, and the mercenaries. Tamas can barely handle the pressure and he needs Adamat, a retired police detective, whose loyalty is in question, and the remaining powder wizards, including Taniel, his estranged son. Some predict death and destruction, but that is the stuff of legends. No educated people would believe in that sort of thing, but they should.
