Built on magic and the ashes of a fallen empire, Archonia is the beacon of The Remaining World. But something is rotten in the capital.
Archon Olarin seized the throne in a bloody coup fifteen years ago and has no intention of conceding power. With magical creatures ravaging the west and foreign enemies testing the southern border, many fear the kingdom has grown weak. Others that a tyrant has seized control.
And all agree a war is brewing.
Hidden in a tiny village far from the capital city, Vander Winterborn has spent his life hiding his true identity. Having watched his family murdered during the Archon's his rise to power, Vander wants nothing to do with the capital or its politics.
Except he's the rightful heir to the throne, and responsibility weighs more than his desire.
When an old ally from his past arrives with a warning, Vander is left with no choice. Forced to take up his father's sword and claim his birthright, Vander embarks on a journey that could save the very kingdom he turned his back on.
For he holds the key to peace, as well as a terrible secret that could tear the kingdom apart from the inside.
The Heir of Archonia is a love letter to epic fantasy, written for fans of The Wheel of Time, The Cosmere, and Shannara.
Genre: Fantasy
