Publisher's summary

“For all of you who need some great fantasy to read while you're waiting for The Winds of Winter...try Quillifer, by Walter Jon Williams. WJW is always fun, but this might be his best yet, a delight from start to finish, witty, colorful, exciting and amusing by turns, exquisitely written.” (George R. R. Martin, author of the Song of Ice and Fire series)

“Chock full of derring-do, blood and thunder, swashbuckling, and other good stuff.” (Paul di Filippo, Locus)

“You have risen as far as you can, and from this point, you may only fall. The matter is inevitable, and I need not intervene.”

Quillifer’s archenemy, the beautiful and vengeful goddess Orlanda, predicts his inescapable fall from power, and Quillifer has to admit that she may be right.

Quillifer has risen high at court. The butcher’s son is now a lord, and now is the confidential agent of the state, the caretaker of the kingdom’s secrets, and the secret lover of the young and brilliant Queen Floria.

He finds himself surrounded by perils. The nobles are at odds with one another, but united in despising Quillifer. Someone has brought deadly poison into court, and Quillifer fears the Queen may be the intended victim. Another assassination plot is aimed at Quillifer himself, and an enemy nation has landed troops intending to topple Floria by force. Quillifer must solve every mystery, meet every danger, and discover every secret in order to guard himself and his love, Floria, from the dangers that beset them.

Lord Quillifer marks the anticipated return of Walter Jon Williams, a New York Times best-selling author and multiple award-winning fantasy author.

Wonderful book

If you enjoyed the previous books, you'll enjoy this as well.
I am left wondering if we will have another book though, I can find no mention of it one way or the other online.
We need Quillifer the King.
