The Codex of Her Scars (Sorcerers' Isle, Book 1)
Summary
"Even the broken will fight" From the number one best-selling author of Legends of the Nameless Dwarf (fantasy book of the year 2012) Centuries ago, the Isle of Branikdür was mysteriously abandoned by the ruling Hélum Empire. Ever since, rival clans have battled for supremacy at the bidding of their sacred sorcerers. During the once-a-year armistice for the Festival of Proving, the gifted warrior Snaith Harrow aims to leave his mark in the fight circles before marrying his childhood sweetheart. But following a freak accident, he discovers a terrible secret about the girl he loves. Tey Moonshine is a daughter of suffering, and she has fallen prey to the things that stalk the netherworld. Under the influence of a demon that hides within her marrow, she gouges a magical codex into her flesh, believing it will make her the greatest sorcerer the isle has ever known. Maimed from his accident and no longer able to fight, Snaith is apprenticed to the clan sorcerer, Theurig, and Tey is sent away from the village. As Snaith is thrust headlong into a sorcerer's world of misdirection and control, Tey must master the darkness that possesses her if she is to stand together with him against the coming storm. For the ripples of forbidden magic have roused the sleeping might of the Hélum Empire. War is coming. A war the clans can never win. And the fate of Branikdür lies in the hands of a warrior turned wizard and a deranged girl who grows more deadly by the day. Sorcerers' Isle is a shocking tale of dark fantasy from international best-selling author D. P. Prior.

Last of the Exalted
Summary
"One of the best fantasy novels I have read so far this year." (Rebecca Ross, Reedsy Discovery) When a bloodthirsty horde storms out of the north, refugees flee for their lives, among them the skald Nyra Sahtis and Sister Caelin, a priestess who was once a trainer of armies. But with the capital, Jeridium, under siege from a second incursion, there is nowhere left to run. As rival armies converge on Jeridium, the Senate are reduced to clutching at straws. In a desperate last gambit, they send the assassin Shadrak the Unseen past enemy lines and into the mountains, where he must find a grief-stricken warrior and his mythical axe. "Derek Prior always produces masterpieces of storytelling, with great characters full of life, relentless plots, and gripping and intense fight scenes." (Mitchell Hogan, author of A Crucible of Souls)
