The saga of Mithgar continues from the national bestselling author of City of Jade and Dragondoom...
For more than a hundred years, a bitter dispute over how the High King had been selected simmered in the dark halls of the royal family whose line had not been chosen. They held fast to their anger and bitterness through generations.
Finally one of their sons, Arkov of Garia, seized the throne through treachery and by force of arms, claiming it as rightfully his. But in his haste to see the king and queen slain, Arkov failed to confirm the death of the young prince, Reyer, who was spirited away to safety.
On a distant and mysterious island ruled by Elves, where he was raised and trained by a trusted Captain of the slain High King, Reyer has now come of age and learned of his lineage. With those loyal to the bloodline of the true High King rallied to his side, Reyer will lead an army against the Usurper—to gain back the crown and kingdom stolen from him and to restore Mithgar to its rightful rule.

...and for Dennis L. McKiernan
“For classic fantasy, there is no better author.”—Jennifer Roberson, author of Sword-Bound
“McKiernan’s narratives have heart and fire and drive.”—Katharine Kerr, author of The Red Wyvern
When High King Valen is slain by the usurper Arkov, his only son and heir is smuggled out of the capital and hidden on a remote island. It might take years, but young Reyer is groomed to recover the throne of Mithgar, with allies among all the forces of Light in the realm. Their enemies, both Arkov and an evil mage with his own agenda, ally themselves with foreign powers that worship the dark. VERDICT McKiernan (whose last Mithgar outing was 2008's City of Jade) comes from the Tolkien school of the geography-obsessed, and the "Mithgar" series is old-fashioned but packed with the details and lore that fans of high fantasy will find familiar and comforting. This one unfolds with no surprises, but the series has a loyal fan base that will enjoy a stand-alone tale in the world they love.
