The land of Calamere has lost its ruler. Torn apart by war and hatred, the Old Magic begins to fade away, and the Lineage of the Goddess abandons the world to torment and death.

But there is a prophecy. From the land of Calamere, the One Sovereign will arise, conquering the darkness and bringing salvation to all.

It was this ancient promise that led Oliver to join the Crownseekers, an order devoted to finding the One Sovereign. But when he realizes that his idolized order is not at all what he thought it would be, he is faced with the most difficult choice of his life.

Does he do his duty and kill the love of his life before she can become the Tyrant whom all Crownseekers fear? Or does he believe that she is the One Sovereign that all of Calamere has been waiting for? Torn between honor and prophecy, Oliver must sacrifice everything to bring peace to the land.

Crown Seeker is created by Alexander Harrington, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

Crown Seeker

The old Crownseeker was breathing shallowly, but he was alive. Oliver made to rush over to him, but he stopped short. 


There were two other people crouching near Crane. They were women, both with rich, dark skin. One straightened at once as soon as Oliver had come into view, her back as straight and rigid as a halberd, with a height to match. She had gray hair which she had drawn back into a severe bun, and her glittering eyes were narrowed in open suspicion. Her chiseled face and thick jaw were all angles and lines, bristling against Oliver. 


The other was much younger. Oliver guessed she was no older than him. She wore a form-fitting dress the color of cream that shone against her skin, the bodice slashed with ribbons of red. The woman was sitting close to Crane, her hands laid lightly upon a stained rag she had pressed against his chest.
