Vincalis The Agitator

A new, thrilling adventure from Lisle is set in the same fantasy world as the popular Secret Texts trilogy--a world where a sorcery called Dragon Magic draws its powers from the agony of slaves who are killed for sorcerous fuel until three heroes challenge this inhuman cruelty.

But this magic draws its power from the agony of slaves who are killed for sorcerous fuel. And for three thousand years, no one has dared question this inhuman cruelty -- until now.

For they challenge the rulers of a globe-spanning power that has endured for millennia -- rulers who will do anything to stay in power forever....
