Marvelous Tale of Black Tongued Lyra

Self-Published

Description

Lyra Bard has been called many things—a villain, a trickster, a chicken thief, a god killer, and, naturally, a man-eating ghoul. She’s had her fill of talentless bards warbling embellished nonsense and spurned lovers twisting the truth to soothe their wounded pride. If history insists on painting her as a monster, she might as well be the one holding the brush.

With ink-stained fingers and a toothless grin, she sets out to write her story. A tale of drunken excess, fallen companions, reckless escapades, and a legion of enemies who still spit her name like a curse.

Yet buried within the wreckage of such misdeeds lies another tale—of a stubborn little girl, too foolish or too headstrong to fear her, who, against all reason, nudges Lyra toward something she never expected: a moment of heroism. One that hurls her into a sea of politics, tangled with murderous knights of lotus who want to kill all things non-human, cunning queen who wants her lazy husband to die, comely princesses with werewolf fetish, lusty eunuchs scheming for self interests, and ancient gods conspiring to start a holy war—with the help of a hedonistic nun.
