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

Oliver recovered from his surprise at seeing the Trebbon. “Hello, Melkem. What brings you here?” 


“I have been conscripted by Young Vamira,” the Trebbon said genially. “She wanted me to check on you and see how you were faring.” 


“Oh,” Oliver said, unable to keep his voice from slipping a little. “That’s kind of her.” 


The Trebbon stared for several seconds at Oliver. He squirmed a little under the carven eyes, leaking sap, as they always did. Then, Melkem sighed creakily. “I see she was right to be worried.” 


“Huh?” Oliver said, taken off guard. 


“It hardly takes a mind reader to see that you are upset, Young Oliver.” Melkem steepled his twiggy fingers beneath his chin. “I can’t help but feel that I share a good deal of blame for that.” 


“Oh, no,” Oliver assured him quickly, "I've been fine, really."
