Opis

This thrilling new sword and sorcery epic fantasy adventure series from new award winning epic fantasy and dark fantasy writer Jean Lowe Carlson explores a complex world of treachery, passion, sex and magic, in the style of Robin Hobb's Farseer Trilogy and Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series. With a deep storytelling feel similar to Patrick Rothfuss' Kingkiller Chronicles and a flavor of highland magic, this fantasy adventure series is typical of Ms. Carlson's style, of writing deep and emotional fantasy and sci fi for adults. Wrongfully accused of treason, veteran Kingsman Elohl seeks the truth of the betrayal that decimated his people a decade ago. Inked with the Blackmark and despised for it, Elohl returns home, uncovering the truth of how the Kingsmen vanished. Ancient enemies are exposed, the powerful Khehemni Lothren, and as they move to usurp power from the throne, Elohl must overcome assassins and protect the Queen to shatter their dominion. A bloody war in the shadows will burn nations and bring kings to their knees, in this epic adventure of bitter friends and gracious enemies.
