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

Oliver found himself standing, though he could not remember doing so. His chair toppled behind him to the floor with a bang. “Why?” he demanded of Pymous, who still sat perfectly at ease behind his desk. “Why attack the Eight Trees?” He did not bother with any ‘lord’ honorifics. 


“Oliver!” Zarine hissed at him. “Calm down!” 


But he barely heard her. His clenched fists were shaking at his sides. Bitter loss howled through him. He could not let this happen.  


“How could the Crownseekers even think about doing something like this?” he asked in a raw voice. “The Trebbons are peaceful! They mean you no harm, so long as you leave them alone!” 


“They have harbored a dangerous dissident from justice.” Pymous said. “As such, they are just as guilty as the Tyrant. No one escapes the Good Goddess’ justice, Brother Oliver.”
