Perfect for fans of Star Wars, Transformers, and Vikings, THE GIFTED KING is a grim dark, Anakin-esque corruption arc following a prince who sacrifices his humanity to save the ones he loves from the vengeful god of chaos. But the god lied.
The second-born son of Anchora's oldest king, Vhogare lived his life dancing just outside of the rules, every risk carefully hidden beneath an artful mask of courtesy. But when he encounters a rogue horseman heralding the end of his world, no place for honor remains. Desperate and determined, he steps up to play the celestial game-a mortal among the hearts of stars. As the sand slides through his hourglass, will he save the world he loves, or will he forsake the shield for the sword?
The Gifted King is a tragic grimdark epic high fantasy villain origin story intended for an adult audience. Please see Lizabeth's website for a comprehensive list of content warnings.
