"Laird delivers a gripping tale with a strong message that fantasy readers who enjoy action and adventure will relish." -- Publishers Weekly
"Deftly written with intricate worldbuilding and vivid characters, Seventhblade is fantasy at its finest ... and I need a sequel!" -- Allison Pang, writer of the Abby Sinclair urban fantasy series For readers of N.K. Jemisin and Rebecca Roanhorse, a fast-paced, anti-colonial action-adventure fantasy that explores twisted power dynamics and the effects of settler colonialism After the murder of T'Rayles's adopted son, the infamous warrior and daughter of the Indigenous Ibinnas returns to the colonized city of Seventhblade ready to tear the streets asunder in search of her son's killer. T'Rayles must lean into the dangerous power of her inherited sword and ally herself with questionable forces, including the Broken Fangs, an alliance her mother founded, now fallen into greed and corruption, and the immortal Elraiche, a powerful and manipulative deity exiled from a faraway land. Navigating the power shifts in a colonized city on the edge and contending with a deadly new power emerging from within, T'Rayles risks everything to find the answers, and the justice, she so desperately desires. Loaded with complex characters and intricately staged action, and set in a fragmented, fascinating world of dangerous magics and cryptic gods, Seventhblade is a masterful new fantasy adventure from a bright emerging Indigenous voice.Tonia Laird is a Métis writer living in the heart of Treaty 6 territory, and a citizen of the Saskatchewan Métis Nation Her work can be found in multiple publications, including literary magazines, fantasy and comic book anthologies, the AAA video games Dragon Age II and Dragon Age: Inquisition, the mobile game Everlove: Rose, and the interactive novel Poster Girl.
