Book Three of Tyrants and Kings.
John Marco's epic fantasy of dark magic and bitter conflict draws to a triumphant conclusion with a naive young prince and a war-weary soldier holding the key to the future . . .
There was nothing Biagio, Emperor of Nar, would not do to gain power. Now he wants peace. The irony is that no one believes him. Instead, the cruellest of his minions - Elrad Leth, Governor of Aramoor, and King Tassis Gayle of Talistan - are massing an army to usurp his throne. But the wily Biagio, has one more desperate plan . . .
At the heart of the scheme is Alazrian Leth, bastard son of Elrad. Barely sixteen, bookish and untrained, this young prince secretly possess rare magical talents. Biagio sends Alazrian on a near-impossible mission: to convince outlawed priest Jahl Rob and his fearless Saints of the Sword, to search for the exiled ruler of Aramoor, and the mysterious people called the Triin.
If these ancient enemies can unite into one great army, a boy's strange and wonderful magic may be the spark to heal a wounded world . . . or set into motion an unimaginable betrayal. Destiny is not finished with the Jackal of Nar . . .
