The world plunged into an era of peace, built upon the backs of the last heroes, who protected their realm and then vanished into legend, taking their powers with them. When the lost powers awaken in six strangers across the mortal realm once again, they seek answers... What danger has compelled the powers to reappear after half a century of peace? As demons once again begin to crawl from the fiery realm of the Abyss, it becomes clear that they are not acting on their own - someone cunning is leading them. But something doesn't add up. The deeper they dig, the more twisted the truth becomes and the more uncertain their path forward. Who... or what must they truly save their world from? As destinies unravel and loyalties are tested, one question lingers: What if saving the world... means trusting the very force that could end it? An epic trilogy of gods, mortals, and fates intertwined - where it seems that things may have been set in motion long before anyone could ever have anticipated and the path forward may just be the one that ends in death.

[Please read 'The Exiled King'] The second demon war has just begun, bloodier than ever. Now demons run rampant in the kingdoms, seemingly unstoppable. Following the astounding conclusion to the first battle, the young Guardians train ferociously, all too aware that their next fight could well be their last. Watching as her companions harness their powers, Lirya fights back the frustrations of being unable to do the same. The final battle is nigh... will it be her time to awaken, at long last? The desperate fight has only just begun... and a startling revelation may just end it all. *Disclaimer: The art used in the cover is not mine! I grabbed it off the internet and added a bunch of effects and text to make the cover... all credit goes to the original artists (Whoever they may be)* NOT recommended to read as a stand-alone - book 1 is complete on my profile (Shadow Kingdoms) and a rewritten version of book 1 and this book (The Exiled King).
