From bestselling author Gary Krist, a vibrant and immersive account of New Orleans’ other civil war, at a time when commercialized vice, jazz culture, and endemic crime defined the battlegrounds of the Crescent City Empire of Sin re-creates the remarkable story of New Orleans’ thirty-years war against itself, pitting the city’s elite “better half” against its powerful and long-entrenched underworld of vice, perversity, and crime. This early-20th-century battle centers on one man: Tom Anderson, the undisputed czar of the city's Storyville vice district, who fights desperately to keep his empire intact as it faces onslaughts from all sides. Surrounding him are the stories of flamboyant prostitutes, crusading moral reformers, dissolute jazzmen, ruthless Mafiosi, venal politicians, and one extremely violent serial killer, all battling for primacy in a wild and wicked city unlike any other in the world.

The country is in turmoil. With the capital city occupied, half a million refugees are on the march, looking for safety on the frontier, accompanied by Lady Flint's soldiers. But escaping war is never easy, and soon the battle may find them, whether they are prepared or not. Back in the capital, Michel Bravis smuggles even more refugees out of the city. But internal forces are working against him. With enemies on all sides, Michel may be forced to find help with the very occupiers he's trying to undermine. Meanwhile, Ben Styke is building his own army. He and his mad lancers are gathering every able body they can find and searching for an ancient artifact that may have the power to turn the tides of war in their favor. But what they find may not be what they're looking for. Continue the pistol-packing fantasy series by the author whose debut novel Brandon Sanderson called "just plain awesome!"

DISROBE ME... Audrey begged, her suddenly nude body approaching him, her breasts lush, her lips parted as she thrust herself at him. But he was afraid his wife had detectives watching, and he pushed her away. It was too late even as he saw her naked body go through the window-sixty feet to the pavement below. Too late for Kevin Lyle, Hollywood editor, frequenter of fleshpots and sinkholes considered tame in sprawling, lust-mad Hollywood . . . where every neon light was another raped virgin, every inch of film another hot body thrown from bed to box-office. This was his world, peopled with Donna, his adulterous wife, Lorayne who enjoyed being beaten, Audrey who wanted to hit the top . . . and who finally hit the bottom . . . these were his people, sick with depravity! ...SICK WITH LUST!
