Halavant overthrew a tyrant, but his kingdom is starving, his nobles are scheming, and the illness killing his closest friend will eventually kill him too. He faces an impossible choice: stay and rule a fracturing kingdom, or venture into enemy territory to find the cure that could save them both.
Yosyph's shadow-walking made him the perfect spy-invisible, invaluable, untouchable. Now it's destroying him. When Halavant departs, Yosyph must step out of the shadows and rule as regent. To survive, he'll need to trust others to see what he cannot, and build a government that doesn't depend on one indispensable person-even him.
Katrin refuses to stand by while the people she loves tear themselves apart. When Yosyph can no longer move through shadows, she learns to do it for him-hunting traitors while playing the perfect, harmless fool. Even if it means becoming as dangerous as the enemies closing in.
Three impossible tasks. Halavant must find a cure among bloodthirsty enemies. Yosyph must lead a splintering kingdom while rebellion brews unseen. Katrin must unmask the traitors before they strike.
But even if they succeed, the hardest truth remains: tearing down a tyrant is easy. Building something better will change them forever.
The thrilling conclusion to The King's Trial duology.
Perfect for fans of Megan Whalen Turner, Robin Hobb, and Brandon Sanderson.
***
Part Two of The King's Trial Duology-epic fantasy where tearing down a tyrant is only half the battle. Two books. One complete story.
