Betrayed by the one his kingdom trusted most, King Adair Delphicai watches his realm fall into shadow. Shackled and condemned to toil in the Varanthian Empire’s ore mines by Seth Varanth, the Dark Sorcerer of Roth, he expects to die a slow, torturous death beneath the mountains.

Instead, he finds unlikely allies amongst the Goblins, a feared and long misunderstood people. As friendship grows into loyalty, and hope kindles where once there was only despair, Adair becomes the reluctant spark of a rebellion that will take him and his Goblin companions across haunted forests, searing deserts and supernatural realms where ancient horrors stalk the darkness. 

To stand against Seth, Adair must become something more than the king he once was, for the fate of Avarentia rests not upon the crown he lost, but upon the family he never expected to find.
