Military interpreter Eliadmaru Faraa has had a lifelong love affair with words. Habitually attuned to the verbal subtext of those around him on the front lines, the last thing the linguist wants to do is pick up a sword. But after he’s personally selected to accompany the Emperor’s nephew on a perilous trip to negotiate a high-stakes treaty, he suddenly has the fate of his people in his hands.
When their ploy to save the other realm’s princess works, Eliadmaru quickly finds himself caught in the complicated position of translating sweet nothings between the two royals. But as powerful players push their own agendas, the wordsmith may be the only person who knows precisely what everyone desires…
With life, death, and love on the line, will Eliadmaru find the perfect expression to bring two realms together?
The Interpreter’s Tale: A Word with Too Many Meanings is an engaging standalone fantasy set in the Direnayu world. If you like clever characters, high-court intrigue, and a glimpse into a rarely seen side of magical settings, read this satisfying political tapestry today!
"If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to be a polyglot, The Interpreter’s Tale will introduce you to a fantastical world of intrigue, trouble and tongue-play. If you are a polyglot, you can commiserate with Eliadmaru constantly being the only one in the room who can understand what everyone else is saying. Extremely fun read!” - David J. Peterson, creator of languages for HBO’s Game of Thrones and Dune I & II
