A king whose fury knows no bounds
An ancient evil awakened
And, most of all, an epic adventure of Fencing, Fighting, Torture, Revenge, Monsters, Evil Kings, Magic, Battles – and a Complete Lack of True Love.
Princess Sylvalla’s greatest trials are about to begin. Phetero, the king she accidentally kidnapped, is determined to have vengeance – and the threat of marriage to Prince Francis looms. Francis may be the only prince in all the Seven Kingdoms who will have her, and proven he can draw swords from stones, but Sylvalla is not the marrying kind.
Terrifying as the threat of marriage is, it pales into insignificance as King Phetero’s grudge turns from war into something more sinister. The prophecies are dire, but what help can they be against the ancient horror King Phetero plans to unleash?
