A breathtaking Silk Road-inspired epic fantasy, an ode to the power of storytelling and an adventure story filled with magic – this is the captivating sequel to The First Binding.
Some stories are hidden for a reason. All tales have a price. And every debt must be paid.
I killed three men as a child and earned myself the name Bloodletter. Then I set fire to the fabled Ashram. I’ve been a bird and robbed a merchant king of a ransom of gold. And I have crossed desert sands and cutthroat alleys to repay my debt.
I’ve stood before the eyes of god, faced his judgement, and cast aside the thousand arrows that came with it. And I have passed through the Doors of Midnight and lived to tell the tale.
I have traded one hundred and one stories with a creature as old as time, and survived with only my cleverness, a candle, and a broken promise.
And most recently of all, I have killed a prince, though the stories say I have killed more than one.
My name is Ari. These are my legends.
And these are my lies.

The Doors Of Midnight is the Dark Knight of sequels, elegant in its sophistication, epic in its storytelling and enigmatic about its secrets
Virdi is a true master of magic, myth, and wonder! I wish there were more stories like this, but there are so few authors who can pull it off. Virdi can, and does! The Doors of Midnight is amazing and wonderful
A twisting tale of political machinations, self-discovery, and myths come to life, The Doors of Midnight takes its reader on a journey to explore the value of stories: the ones we share, the ones we hide, and the ones we tell about ourselves
