The Emperor’s Blades: Chronicle of the Unhewn Throne, Book I by Brian Staveley ($10.43)
In The Emperor’s Blades by Brian Staveley, the emperor of Annur is dead, slain by enemies unknown. His daughter and two sons, scattered across the world, do what they must to stay alive and unmask the assassins. But each of them also has a life-path on which their father set them, destinies entangled with both ancient enemies and inscrutable gods.
Kaden, the heir to the Unhewn Throne, has spent eight years sequestered in a remote mountain monastery, learning the enigmatic discipline of monks devoted to the Blank God. Their rituals hold the key to an ancient power he must master before it’s too late.
An ocean away, Valyn endures the brutal training of the Kettral, elite soldiers who fly into battle on gigantic black hawks. But before he can set out to save Kaden, Valyn must survive one horrific final test.
At the heart of the empire, Minister Adare, elevated to her station by one of the emperor’s final acts, is determined to prove herself to her people. But Adare also believes she knows who murdered her father, and she will stop at nothing—and risk everything—to see that justice is meted out.

Both the book and the author are completely new to me and I’m actually very excited to step into this family drama with a touch of magic. I have found that the sci-fi books with a touch of family drama are my favorites, because families are amazing. The most amazing thing about families is that the dynamic never seems to change too much. A true family is always driven by love and the need to do what is correct for the whole family.
Gameboard of the Gods: A Novel by Richelle Mead ($8.24)

I just love books where people get killed and have to solve the mystery of who done it. This book has that with a huge heap of strong woman main character. I can’t wait to see what these characters can make happen because this author sounds like one both my daughter and I will enjoy.
