Vesuvius' Rise

Book excerpt: War of the Zealot Empire #3 - Vesuvius is on the rise and his vision could not be clearer. Since the fall of the Prophet, the Empire fell, but he has made it his duty to eradicate all in his way of social order, domination and control. From Medelthians to rebels among his own species, he will stop at nothing to restore order amongst the gross chaos that has befallen his people. But when he meets the most savage of women, a woman who could ruthlessly beat him to death without batting an eye, his heart stops. Everything about the world he knew was upside down, and between their survival and teh feelings in his soul and body, he cannot stand to be away from her. After all, if not for the protection of a dragon, he would be a vatulure's snack.
