"Mother was Angel...Father was a Demon. Author Jake Taylor steps outside of his science fiction series (Silence In Numbers) to create the first of an epic Fantasy Fiction series, Victis Honor...a series that will allow the reader to get to know a myriad of characters...spend time with them...understand them, each book focusing on different ones; with all books leading to an exciting finish at the end of the series, where the characters come together in this ancient/futuristic fantasy world known as Sanctum."
In this first book of the Victis Honor series, a knight enters into a world unfamiliar to her old ways – one changed by the technological advances of the Ravakan Empire. Guns mix with magic, cars race alongside dragons, swords are raised against tanks. Skyscrapers rise above old taverns and trains run around markets. But for Isabella of Two Faces, all of this is background noise – because she doesn’t have long to see it.
Isabella has spent twenty years believing that she deserves her coming death. As a powerful knight of both demonic and angelic blood, over the course of two hundred years she has brought death to millions, and the guilt and regret is a weight too heavy to carry for long. Until she meets Haruka, the beautiful elven monk who sees something else in her, and who decides to help her carry that weight – though she brings her own problems with her.
Now, the knight and the monk race for time, picking up both allies and enemies along the way, while forging a love between them. Pursued by both Isabella’s past and Haruka’s guild of assassins, it’s a struggle for survival – and one that Isabella may lose...even if they win.
