Book Description
Chief Linnaes Shaka A rebel organization drags Calexic's Chief Shaka off to face dangers in a brutal wilderness, threats, and intrigues unlike anything he could have imagined. Then, escape. This is not, however, the hoped-for rescue. Indeed, Shaka plunges into an adventure that could forever change his world, as well as him. Sergeant Tomia Flatsk Flatsk has beauty, intelligence, and skill: traits appreciated in a government operative. But is her allegiance to Calexic's government or to an unknown realm? Her past is a mystery, and her behavior fosters doubt. One young man would seek her heart, nonetheless. What he cannot know is that long ago she gave it to another. Arygon's Sovereign Ronucaet "Reben" Torim yearns for a life he cannot have and a woman his station will not allow. Raging uncertainties and sorrow cannot permit him, even so, to yield his throne. He must battle, rather, his brother: The man he loves. The man readied to rule. The man whom the prophets said would be king.
