About this ebook

General Wyl Thirsk of Morgravia has endured unimaginable loss at the hands of King Celimus - his best friend murdered, his sister imprisoned, and his mentor condemned to death. Now, Celimus has set his sights on the neighbouring realm of Briavel and its inexperienced Queen Valentyna, pressuring her into a doomed political marriage.

Wyl is desperate to save the woman he loves from this hideous fate, but destiny intervenes. Trapped by a gift from the witch, Myrren, Wyl must embark on a perilous journey to find the elusive Manwitch, the only one capable of breaking the dangerous enchantment over him.

As war looms from all directions, Wyl's quest becomes terrifyingly woven into the future of three realms - and he must confront his destiny to protect everything he holds dear.
