The King's Blood: Dagger and the Coin

Daniel Abraham's short stories have been nominated for the Nebula award and included in Gardner Dozois's Year's Best Science Fiction anthology. He lives in New Mexico with his wife and daughter.

"Abraham builds onThe Dragon's Pathto create and sustain a rich, satisfyingly complex epic fantasy." --Publishers Weekly(Starred Review) onThe King's Blood.

"[Daniel] Abraham just keeps getting better and better... [He] belongs in the first rank of today's fantasists."—George R.R. Martin, New York Times bestselling author of A Game of Thrones
"You have to admire ace storyteller Abraham's skill at building plausible alternate worlds, a trade much practiced, but not often so well, ever since the days of Tolkien and the Shire ... One of the many strengths of Abraham's storytelling is that he allows a little moral ambiguity to curl around the toes of his characters ... Another trademark romp in the otherworld, and a lot of fun."
