Publisher's Synopsis
A young man fights ruthlessly to become king. In a mythic world without magic, wizards, dragons, gods or goddesses, he needs more than a sharp sword, ruthless ambition and savage persistence to mount a dead king's throne. He needs allies. Not just good and brave-hearted friends. But also conniving craven accomplices with as much to gain. With them by his side, the golden-haired prince can become legend. Adult themes, violence, strong language and sexual situations.
