About This Book
In this conclusion to the Ascendance trilogy, the impulsive Jaron, former orphan thief and now King of Carthya, is facing down multiple enemies and his country’s invasion with his usual aplomb. There is always a trick up this royal’s sleeve, though setbacks involving those closest to him—and a surprise loss—almost push him to give up.
