VENOM'S TASTE
The first book in the House of Serpents trilogy, set in the Dungeons & Dragons Forgotten Realms world.
Hlondeth is a city populated by the humanoid serpents known as the yuan-ti and ruled by House Extaminos. This powerful house of serpents is the ultimate target of The Pox, a human cult whose members worship the goddess of plague and disease. They unwittingly work the deadly will of Sibyl, whose dangerous cabal will turn every human in the city into a freakish tainted one unless Arvin, a human, can stop them.

"The character of Arvin is the most mature, realistic and reasonable I've encountered in the D&D milieu. I cannot say enough how deep and motivated the characters are... I look forward to more of Ms. Smedman's work."

"Lisa Smedman is fast becoming my favorite author in the fantasy genre. Venom's Taste is a great example of her skill at creating multi-dimensional characters and intricate plotlines... I am constantly delighted by her sense of detail. She is a master of sensory description."
