The relentless pursuit of a fugitive brings a reluctant hunter to a city rife with treachery, where he finds himself at odds with a dubious smuggler.

The Smuggler’s Deal, a companion novella to K. R. Solberg and C. R. Jacobson’s Remnant, presents an intriguing introduction to the world of Palimar, where immortals rule from splendid temples and their enemies lurk in grand towers. In this treacherous world of cults, magic, and guns, only the most cunning mortals survive.

When Shane zem’Arta fails to capture escaped con artist Daeven Kritcher, his reputation is put on the line. The Freeland spire lords he works for do not forgive easily. Leaving his crew behind, he chases Kritcher up the coast of Palimar to the seaside city of Estbye.

Shane reunites with Jon Therman, a smuggler with his own dubious agenda. Their goals align, but Shane’s target is no slouch. With the help of Jon’s clever daughter, Ella, Shane closes in on Kritcher. But things never seem to go Shane’s way, especially in this city.

“Find this godkiller.”

“Dead or alive?”

When an immortal dies
no one mourns
but people notice

The shocking death of an immortal sends Collector Mavell, a master of shadows, on a quest for the killer. He believes a foreseer of Drawlen, a religious regime, knows something about the murder.

Jon Therman and his family of sunrock smugglers stumble into this manhunt. A former slave, he only desires to live unnoticed and to avoid the corruption of the world. But when a Drawlen immortal pursues his children, Jon retaliates.

Jon’s daughter, Ella, attempts to rescue her friend from a ritual sacrifice. To do so, she must defy the commands of her fellow smugglers.

Shane zem’Arta, a Freelander spy, searches for his missing commander. His orders complicate Ella’s effort to save her friend and Jon’s mission to protect his family, leading these old friends on a perilous adventure. Smugglers, rogues, and lords clamber to stand against the Drawlen immortals. Can these fragile factions set aside their mistrust to survive a burgeoning war, or will they fall divided?

Remnant, the first of the four-volume epic fantasy The Palimar Saga, introduces a world of magic, trolls, shapeshifters, and guns. It tells the story of a family’s struggle to survive a manhunt for a godkiller, one who has the power to vanquish immortals.
