WHEN DESTINY CALLS, THERE’S NO FIGHTING BACK.
As a bard’s apprentice, Kihrin grew up with tales of legendary deeds. He also steels to escape Quur’s slums. Then he raids the wrong house, he’s marked by a demon, and life will never be the same again.
His plight attracts royalty, who claim him as their immoral prince’s lost son. But far from living the dream, Kihrin’s at the mercy of his new family’s ruthless ambitions. However, escaping makes matters worse. Kihrin is horrified to learn he’s at the centre of an ancient prophecy. And every side – from gods to demons to dragons – want him as their pawn. Those old stories lied about many things too: especially the hero always winning. Then again, maybe Kihrin isn’t the hero, for he’s not destined to save the empire.
He’s destined to destroy it.
Jenn Lyons begins the Chorus of Dragons series with The Ruin of Kings, an epic fantasy novel about a man who discovers his fate is tied to the future of an empire.
