Renir Esyn has fought the Protectorate, the dark mage Klan Mard, the ragged men of the Draymar Plains...and still he lives. He is the man who found Caeus and set him free. Friend to killers and priests alike.
He is the man who would be king. But a King cannot rule alone...cannot gain the crown without allies. In the battle for Rythe, he'll need strength and passion, and friends.
On the side of light, the mercenaries Shorn and Bourninund, the Order of Sard, Tirielle A'm Dralorn, Reih and her bodyguard Perr. And Caeus, the Red Wizard, with millennia of power in his mad bones.
Heroes all, strong of heart. But heroes die. Wars can be lost.
Under red skies, the blight spreads. A new threat rises and an old foe returns. And while Renir Esyn and his allies fight for their lives and the fate of Rythe, darkness rises. There can be no other way...because when the Sun Destroyers return, Rythe will fall.
Contains bonus short story 'The Unknown Warrior'
Note: This is the third book of a larger body of work, The Rythe Quadrilogy, that began with Rythe Awakes and continued with Tides of Rythe. It will conclude with Beneath Rythe, the fourth and final tale. It follows on from events set out in The Line of Kings Trilogy. Neither series is essential to the other, though both concern certain characters' larger story arcs. Visit 'The Island Archive' online for further updates and bonus material.
