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

For many long, agonizing seconds, Pymous said nothing to Oliver, busying himself with leafing through the parchment strewn across his desk. Oliver squirmed in his seat. Out of the corner of one eye, he could see the Adjudicator, with Golmul perched upon his back, both watching him unblinkingly. 


Oliver knew he should be using the reprieve to organize his thoughts, to think of a convincing story that was not exactly a lie. But he could not think clearly. His mind was a tangled maelstrom of panic.  


How had it come down to him to stop the Crownseekers from attacking the Eight Trees? ‘I can’t do this!’ he thought. 


Across the room, Golmul cocked his head at him. 


“Oliver,” Zarine breathed in his ear, still perched on his shoulder, her claws digging into his shirt, though he could not feel them at all. “You’re thinking too much. He can hear everything.” 


A spike of helpless anger went through Oliver. ‘I can’t help it!’ he thought furiously at her.
