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

The Trebbons went at a quick pace, carting Oliver between them. He was allowed to walk on his own, but not to fall behind. Oliver felt like a sheep stuck in the middle of a herd, jostled onward by the wooden bodies around him without a clue where he was going. 


Zarine had materialized as a wolf and was loping alongside him, just outside the ring of Trebbons. She was obviously right about them not being able to see her; none of the creatures paid her a second glance. 


“Any ideas?” he asked her out of the corner of his mouth. Immediately, one of the Trebbons shepherding him turned its head toward him. Oliver froze beneath its invisible eyes. 


“Don’t say anything aloud,” Zarine hissed at him. “Just think it. I can hear.” 


Forcing his attention away from the attentive Trebbon, Oliver nodded. ‘How’s this?’ he thought. 


“Very loud,” Zarine said, wrinkling her nose. “Why must you always shout your thoughts?” 


‘What? You can’t shout a thought.’
