Overview

Alexander Delacroix's darkly romantic debut Heart of the Impaler is perfect for fans of Kiersten White's And I Darken. Vlad Dracula has long lived in the shadows cast by his bloodthirsty father, the voivode, and his older brother, Mircea. Despite their cruelty, Vlad has yearned to prove himself worthy of the throne his whole life. In the cold halls of the voivode's palace, Vlad can only rely on his cousin and closest friend, Andrei Musat. When Vlad and Andrei meet Ilona Cs�ki, the daughter of an influential boyar, they each find themselves inextricably drawn to her. But then Ilona is betrothed to Mircea as part of a political alliance, and Vlad's resentfulness of his brother begins to seethe into something far darker. Ilona has no desire to marry the voivode's eldest son, but love and marriage are the least of her worries. The royal family's enemies have already tried to put an arrow through her back--and if anyone discovers her blossoming feelings for Andrei and Vlad, she may just wish they'd succeeded. Beneath the shadow of impending war, the only battle that will be deadlier than the one for Ilona's life will be the one for her heart.

A performer since childhood, Jason received his undergraduate degree from Northwestern University, and his MFA from the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School. Jason's been listening to Tantor for a long time, and is absolutely thrilled to be working with them. He's always had his face buried in some kind of book (usually something long, nerdy, with either swords or spaceships), and loves bringing his skills and experience to bear to bring an author's stories to life.
