A DEATHLY MISTAKE. A KING BETRAYED. A HEALER TESTED.
Tensions are boiling over in Valoria. Insurrections abound. King Deresk's life is being threatened and it may be by someone close to him. Who can our young Bestowed trust? What can they do to save Valoria even as it's crumbling apart around them?
Join the Bestowed in this epic adventure that will have you infiltrating cities with our masterful thief, running across plains with the stamina of a Luminant, and meeting family relations in the secretive Circle, all while discovering in ourselves what we are made of and if we can let ourselves feel and fail in order to succeed.
The sweet spot between Eragon and Rangers Apprentice. Also for readers of Jennifer Nielsen and Michael Webb.
No profanity, no explicit content, just a whole lot of adventure and Narnia-level violence.
