The Keep Within

Praise

Praise for The Keep Within

“Full of dark intrigues, wonderfully layered characters, and a dazzling plot that twists and turns in satisfying ways, this book is masterfully written and just bloody fantastic to read.”—Sebastien de Castell, award-winning author of The Greatcoats and Spellslinger series


“A cartful of courtly intrigue, a menagerie of plots within schemes, and a massive dose of debauchery. All tied up in JL Worrad’s effortless way of making a world feel real and lived in.”—Rob J. Hayes, award-winning author of The Mortal Techniques and The War Eternal series

“The Keep Within is excellent from start to finish. Great characters, rich intrigue, full of twists, turns and some delightfully dark moments. And it’s funny! I loved it.”—Peter Newman, award-winning author of The Vagrant and Deathless series

“A gloriously gory Jacobean romp with a festive setting and twists that keep coming right to the end.”—Dr. Fiona Moore, author of ‘Management Lessons from Game of Thrones: Organization Theory and Strategy in Westeros’

“Another riotous triumph.”—Edward Cox, author of The Relic Guild series and “The Wood Bee Queen”


Praise for Pennyblade


“‘Pennyblade’ doesn’t so much reinvent well-worn fantasy tropes as stab them to death in a dark alley. Kyra Cal’Adra is a lethally alluring protagonist weaving an intricate tale rich in ferocious action and multifaceted intrigue, all topped off by a deliciously vicious twist.” – Anthony Ryan, author of “Blood Song”, “The Wolf’s Call” and more 


“A violent, and wildly imaginative, riot of a book.” – R. J. Barker, author of “Age of Assassins” and “The Bone Ships”


“The changeling offspring of Jorg Ancrath and Phèdre nó Delaunay. Filthy, furious, wonderful.”– Anna Smith-Spark, author of “The Court of Broken Knives”


“Provocative and decadent, crude and funny, and an altogether entertaining fantasy adventure.” — Edward Cox, author of The Relic Guild series


“The most fresh and original take on a classic fantasy species I’ve read since ‘The Grey Bastards’. A fun, blood and sex-fueled adventure with a knockout cast of characters, and a surprisingly bitter-sweet love story at its core. I enjoyed the hell out of it!” — Rob Hayes, author of The Mortal Techniques and The War Eternal series


“A fantasy adventure full of violence, passion, chaos and betrayal.” — Emerald Archer
