Conqueror's City is the exciting first chapter in the epic fantasy series Histories of Asfáleia.
Constant, grinding warfare has brutalised Asfáleia for centuries, leaving the land and the people cruelly scarred. In the west, the Rutik have consolidated their scattered fiefdoms and returned as a united and far more powerful kingdom. In the east, the surviving Achaean city-states fight to maintain control of land that has been theirs for centuries.
Arion is the crown prince of Tarsus, mightiest of the Achaean cities. A cheerful, confident youth he watches the war with naïve fascination, unable to comprehend the possibility of losing everything that he takes for granted.
Mira is a junior officer in the Northern Army of the Rutik. Privileged of neither fame nor fortune, she is determined to demonstrate her worth and rise through the ranks, spilling however much blood is necessary along the way.
Unbeknownst to either of them, the resurgent Kingdom of the Rutik is only the foamy crest of a deeper and more destructive wave. Dark magic, demons and half-breed Avatars wait to be unleashed upon the hapless Tarseans, bringing horror and ruin to every shadowy corner.
In the whirling chaos of a city under siege, two cultures collide: one fighting for supremacy, the other for survival.
A highly recommended read...Compelling characters, fantastic description - Nathan Jones, author of Skinner and Travelling Without Moving
