Description

Swordplay, scandal, and sex—welcome to the world of Tremontaine, a glittering new entry in Ellen Kushner's classic Riverside series.This is the 7th episode in the second season of Tremontaine, a 13-episode serial from Serial Box Publishing. This episode written by Joel Derfner. Diane educates Lionel on matters of power, but finds herself at a disadvantage when Davenant issues her a challenging proposition. Micah’s research is rudely interrupted, leading to a drunken confession from Kaab that frays her friendship with Rafe. A duel gone wrong forces Vincent into Diane’s employ.Ambition, love affairs, and rivalries dance with deadly results in Tremontaine. A Duchess whose beauty is matched only by her cunning; a handsome young scholar with more passion than sense; a foreigner in a playground of swordplay and secrets; and a mathematical genius whose discoveries herald revolution when games of politics begin, no one is safe. Keep your wit as sharp as your steel in this world where politics is everything, and outcasts are the tastemakers.
