Dark Sun Rising is book 2 of the Song Gate series, an epic YA political/alternative history fantasy series that's perfect for readers who love gritty, fast-paced, character-driven stories with high personal stakes, a morally ambiguous cast, and defiant heroes.
An ancient army resurrected
A kingdom on the brink of collapse
A rebellion thirteen years in the making
...and an heir who refuses to follow the rules
All Nick wants is a normal teenage life, hidden from his war-torn homeland, Korelios. But when the rebellion he abandoned tracks him down, he is dragged back into the war he tried to forget.
The only hope for Korelios is for Nick to reclaim his throne, but to do that he must form a dangerous allegiance with the Penumbra Guard, a clandestine army led by a man his friends have sworn to kill. As alliances blur and betrayals cut deep, Nick must confront the brutal legacy of his own bloodline and decide what he's willing to sacrifice for the crown he never wanted.
Because in this war, the price of victory may be his humanity.
