One moment, Evan was a Marine trying to leave war behind. The next, he was ripped through a portal into a world of magic, politics, and fighting... lots of fighting.

Stranded with no way home, the battle-hardened Marine must navigate an Arabian Nights-inspired realm where swords and sorcery rule - and a single mistake can cost your life. Or worse, get you engaged to a fierce warrior woman who also happens to be a snake. Literally. As Shahb'ndir, fiancé to Alya, heiress of the most powerful admiral in the Shamelakh realm, Evan has no choice but to get involved in his accidental new home's politics just to survive, even though the snakes as a rule don't like humans.

Intrigue brews. Impossible enemies emerge - barbarian brutes wielding modern tactics and technology they have no right to possess. The Shamelakhim need answers. To find them, Evan and Alya must work together, along with a cunning human magician, his miniature dragon, and a Shamelakh snake-magician every bit as sly. What they find could bring death on their entire world.

In a land where what you don't know will kill you, one Marine will have to navigate deadly politics and decide how far he's willing to go for a snake-woman - and a world - he never asked to be a part of.

Action, magic, romance, and high-seas adventure collide in this gripping portal fantasy.
