From Goodreads:
A SLAVE ON THE RUN
When Rialla was young, slave traders from Darran ambushed her clan, killing all the men and enslaving the women and children. For years, Rialla lived in bondage, serving her master while waiting for a chance to escape. When that chance came, she made the best of it – and fled to the mercenary nation of Sianim...
A SPY IN TRAINING
Now she can strike back at her former masters. A lord in Darran seeks to outlaw slavery – but there are plots to kill him before he can. Rialla is chosen by the spymaster of Sianim to prevent the murder – and is plunged into a world of deadly magic, where gods walk in human form. Where her most trusted companions are not what they claim. And where Rialla could be enslaved again...
A CHANCE FOR VENGEANCE
As a spy, Rialla realizes the danger of her mission. As a former slave, she realizes she has no choice.

My Review:
I freaking loved reading these books! Putting off reading them until the next week, because of reviews and how my mind works, was just awful! And the wait to read the final book is going to be just as bad, because I want to read it now, they're just so great!
DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME
Shamera had spent most of her young life as sorceress and thief, stealing from Southwood's nobility to survive. Now Sham must face the greatest test of her skills...
A killer has struck Southwood, claiming the lives of nobles. Lord Kerim, Reeve of Southwood, turns to Sham for help. Posing as his mistress, she delves behind castle walls to find the killer. But this murderer is no mortal and Sham must use all of her magical wisdom to send the demon away. Because the city of Southwood has nowhere to hide--and no time to run...
My Review:
I freaking loved reading these books! Putting off reading them until the next week, because of reviews and how my mind works, was just awful! And the wait to read the final book is going to be just as bad, because I want to read it now, they're just so great!
First off, I have to say, Rialla is so incredibly strong! She escaped slavery, and made a new life for herself, but given this chance to abolish slavery where she was kept-but having to basically become a slave again, I can't even imagine.
This series is pretty dark. There's not much graphic that's depicted, but some of the events that happen are horrendous. The stakes are pretty big, though, too, given that some of the threats are gods and demons, respectively!
When Demons Walk fulfills the threat of Steal the Demon, with the East invading, on behalf of the god. I'm wondering why they weren't stopped, but there are some good people that have come, like Lord Kerim. I can't wait to see what's going to happen next!
Reading these books was just incredible, and I can't wait to finish out this series!
