The Law of Swords is David A. Tatum’s primary fantasy series, a trilogy published between 2013 and 2021. The series begins with In Treachery Forged (2013), which establishes a world where military strategy and political betrayal drive the plot. In Forgery Divided (2016) continues the conflict, and In Division Imperiled (2021) brings the trilogy to a close.
The titles reflect the series’ focus on deception and divided loyalties. The gap between books, particularly the five-year wait between the second and third entries, suggests Tatum took his time crafting the conclusion. Readers who enjoy military-focused fantasy with political depth will find this trilogy worth following from start to finish.
