Daggerbound (Swordheart Book 2)
New York Times bestselling author T. Kingfisher returns to the charming fantasy world of Swordheart in this delightful and unexpected new romantic adventure.
Learned Edmund, a disillusioned scholar, is transporting yet another precious relic from one stuffy temple to a different stuffy temple. Another great adventure for the ages…
But when Edmund is set upon by bandits, in desperation, he breaks the cardinal rule and grabs for the relic, an ancient sword. To his surprise, instead of unsheathing a rusty, ancient weapon, an alarmingly handsome man appears, wielding daggers of blue steel and cutting the thieves down.
This man is the Dervish, an immortal warrior who’s been trapped for centuries in a sword of enchanted steel, and is angry as hell about it. He hates the curse that put him there, and he wants to hate Edmund, just as he has hated every wielder before him.
But the damned scholar is just so sweet and clever and kind. And while the Dervish may be able to protect Edmund from bandits, cultists, dragons, and strange inhuman diplomats, he may find it much harder to protect his own heart.

Frightening Fantasy and Rakish Romance from T. Kingfisher
The delightful charm of The Princess Bride meets the delicious bodyguard romance of From Blood and Ash in this cozy fantasy romance. A dark reimagining of “Snow White” steeped in poison, intrigue, and treason of the most magical kind. A tale of low fantasy and high mischief. A dark reimagining of the Brothers Grimm’s “The Goose Girl,” rife with secrets, murder, and forbidden magic. An original, subversive fairy tale about a kind-hearted, toad-shaped heroine, a gentle knight, and a mission gone completely sideways. If Marra can complete three impossible tasks, a witch will grant her the tools she needs. But these tasks are only the beginning of Marra’s strange and enchanting journey to save her sister and topple a throne.
