Ethan Ford was just a 20-year-old orphan from Earth-until death pulled him into a world of swords, sorcery, and empires. Reborn as Rowan Vexlaar, a noble child of the powerful Empire of Vareth, he should have lived a life of status and privilege. His father was the second son of a ducal house. His mother-a Nirathali princess-was married into Vareth as a gesture of goodwill during a peace agreement overseen by the Crownlands, meant to strengthen diplomatic ties between Vareth, Nirathal, Dregrath, and Valdros. But peace is a fragile thing. When a vast mana stone mine was discovered on the Vareth-Nirathal border, war reignited-and Rowan's family became political liabilities. Branded magically worthless after a flawed early ritual, Rowan was cast aside by his own bloodline. And at just ten years old, he watched helplessly as his sick mother was imprisoned and used to blackmail her brother-the king of Nirathal. She died in a cell. Forgotten. Alone. The world didn't just take his mother. It buried his name, ignored his pain, and denied his worth. Now, Rowan wants revenge. But he won't stop there. He will rise. He will conquer. He will claim the Crown Of Magic.
