But first, check out the synopsis for The Eidyn Saga…
The Lost War – Demons continue to burn farmlands, violent mercenaries roam the wilds and a plague is spreading. The country of Eidyn is on its knees.
In a society that fears and shuns him, Aranok is the first mage to be named king’s envoy. And his latest task is to restore an exiled foreign queen to her throne. The band of allies he assembles each have their own unique skills. But they are strangers to one another, and at every step across the ravaged land, a new threat emerges, lies are revealed and distrust could destroy everything they are working for. Somehow, Aranok must bring his companions together and uncover the conspiracy that threatens the kingdom – before war returns to the realms again.
The Bitter Crown – The fog of war is lifted and the conspiracy at the heart of Eidyn finally exposed. Now they know the truth, Aranok and his allies must find a way to free a country that doesn’t know it’s held captive.
But with divided loyalties and his closest friendship shaken, can their alliance hold against overwhelming odds? The quest to retake the country begins here.
We still have to wait until December to re-join Aranok for The Bitter Crown, but for those who can’t wait that long, simply click the awesome cover below of The Bitter Crown below (from artist Jeremy Wilson and designer Lauren Panepinto)…
