The Runemaster Homicide (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781087994017)

BRONZE IS LAW. BRONZE IS PEACE.

The all-human Valconian Empire has used bronze blades and powerful rune-based magic to rule for three hundred years.

But now the horned, violet-skinned, reclusive Sethyds have been forced from their island-nation home. Given no choice but to seek refuge on Imperial land.

Tall. Graceful. Beautiful. Possessed of an unholy, terrifying strength.

The humans loathe them. Fear them. Call them "demons."

Yet the Empire's fate is about to come to rest on the shoulders of Nysska Stonegate, the first Sethyd member of the Imperial Criminal Investigation Ministry, known as the Thaumetallicon.

The Empire will surely crumble and fall...unless Nysska can solve THE RUNEMASTER HOMICIDE.
