Top ranking #1 in Sword and Sorcery "The king is dead! Long live no one, nobody ... Nothing ..." Game of Thrones meets Caraval in this family-friendly epic telling of light, darkness and all the colours in between. "In the year 390, the Albidoni crowned their first king. Seven hundred years later, they deposed their last and now that man is dead. Let the people rejoice. But in the land of dreamers where men would live free, there lingers an ancient tyranny waiting to be awakened. When civil war and plague threaten to undo the peace the Albidoni have so long strived for and when the sunset bleeds only red onto the horizon, that evil will return embraced with open arms. - For what the dreamers have forgotten or what perhaps they never knew is that shadows have a price, wishes require a life and its tales told 'round the fireside that are the cruelest masters of all."
