Here is their write up. . .
Think Kill Bill meets Dune. In The Calvanni, knife-fighter Cedrin is called
by the Brotherhood of the Night; what he learns in their secret caverns
shocks Cedrin. How did he end up in a rebellion against the rulers of his
native Athria? And who's his enemy? The fiercely independent Ellen, now
officially ruler of her country, has to battle to keep her heritage; but she
has a weapon that no one can match. Action, sword fights, conflicts,
adventures, and romance all clash in the land where everything metal is
magic. McMahon offers a contemporary updating of a popular genre; The
Calvanni reflects his (self-confessed) addiction to all things film. Here's
something for the lover of swashbuckling heroes and sword play and toe
curling tension.
The Calvanni is the first book in the Jakirian Cycle series and has been
published in Australia by Sid Harta Publications.
