Product description
Review
Edwards’s debut combines swashbuckling action, political intrigue, and romance into a fast-paced and enjoyable adventure…. Intriguing worldbuilding and appealing characters set the stage and pique the reader’s interest for sequels. ― Publishers Weekly
Jaw-dropping worldbuilding, fluent prose, and an equal blend of noir and snark make for that most delicious of fantasy adventures, an out-of-this-world tale that feels pressingly real. A smart and savvy joy. -- A. J. Hartley, New York Times–bestselling author of the Steeplejack series and the Cathedrals of Glass series
A fast, fun urban fantasy in a wonderfully original world, full of slam-bang magic and interesting characters. -- Django Wexler, author of 'The Thousand Names'
Absolutely sensational. Edwards takes all the familiar pawns of urban fantasy and makes royalty of them in his debut. We’re invited into an alternative, historical world of staggering breadth and realization. The central characters, Rune and Brand, combine the loyalty of Frodo and Samwise with the sacrilege of a pairing like Tyrion and Bronn. When thrown in beside fascinating magical systems, breathtaking prose, and a relentless plot—this is the tale of Atlantean magic we didn’t know we wanted. -- Scott Reintgen, author of 'Nyxia'
This is a highly enjoyable read: take the witty noir of Dashiell Hammett’s The Thin Man, kick it to an alternate present day, add equal portions of action and magic, garnish with a sprig of romance, and you have The Last Sun. A great recipe. -- Eric Scott Fischl, author of 'Dr. Potter’s Medicine Show'
Sharp dialogue, plus characters you want to follow around just to see what happens next . . . What’s not to love? -- Ferrett Steinmetz, author of 'Flex' --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

About the author

K.D. lives and writes in North Carolina, but has spent time in Massachusetts, Maine, Colorado, New Hampshire, Montana, and Washington. (Common theme until NC: Snow. So, so much snow.)
Mercifully short careers in food service, interactive television, corporate banking, retail management, and bariatric furniture have led to a much less short career in Higher Education.
The first book in his urban fantasy series THE TAROT SEQUENCE, called THE LAST SUN, was published by Pyr in June 2018, followed by THE HANGED MAN and THE HOURGLASS THRONE. A 200-page expansion to the third book, called THE EIDOLON, is due in February 2023.
K.D. is represented by Lesley Sabga at the Seymour Agency, and Kim Yau at Echo Lake Entertainment for media rights.

When Rune is hired to search for Lady Judgment’s missing son, Addam, he assumes he’s been given just another ordinary assignment. But as he begins to question Addam’s relatives and business associates, any semblance of normalcy soon disappears. Even worse, it seems Rune is too good at his job, because his investigation attracts the unwanted attention of creatures that shouldn’t exist. Creatures who would see him dead, and aren’t in the least bit fussy as to how they go about trying to achieve that end.
The problem is, he can’t give up! Some of the clues he unearths hearken back to the fall of the Sun Court, and the skeletons in the closet from his own past that he is only too willing to kill to keep.
It’s inevitable that things quickly go from bad – to weird, to macabre – to worse, leading Rune to question what the hell is really going on, because there’s no way this is a simple abduction.
I’ve got to say, K. D. Edwards has done a marvelous job. Employing an innovate – and I must stress, rather cool magical system – The Last Sun is set in an alternative world where the legend of the lost city now lives on in modern-day New Atlantis. Clever. It’s familiar enough that you immediately connect to the environment, yet so unusual, you can’t help but be spellbound by the mystical elements. Just the ingredients you’d expect in a quality fantasy romp. An engaging narrative; down-to-earth – and often cynical – humor; and a pleasing interplay of characters, help the story fly past. And it does!
You don’t need a full deck of Arcana to know what the future holds. Trust my Judgment. I thoroughly enjoyed The Last Sun, and I’m sure you will too. So, the Devil with Temperance! Jump in your Chariot or shuffle down to your nearest bookstore or online retailer and deal yourself a Sun, Moon and Star of a treat.
You’d be a Fool to miss it!

The basic plot is a nothing special. The penniless heir and his sole companion scratch a living as mercenaries/detectives, then gather a rag-tag group of companions and start to attempt to reclaim his birthright. But the world building is excellent, the characters interesting and varied. The details of the plot are interesting and not predictable. The hero has special powers that are gradually revealed, but still makes mistakes and is very human.
Can you tell I loved it?

Gotta love a book that showcases these things so effortlessly.
I really enjoyed this read and I am buying the next book now.

The characters are well developed and the banter is witty.
My only criticism is the resolution of what takes place in this book, a large part of it takes place 'off stage' and the outcomes are simply reported.
Given how much fun this book is to read, and it is the author's first, my criticism is tiny.
I am so looking forward to the next book in the sequence.

Ike perhaps just a tad bit swearing from one character but generally well rounded characters and interesting story.
