Harbinger

More about the book

For a thousand years, Inathis withered in the shallow ash of betrayal, abandoned to a depthless shadow. What had once been the heart of the Vythrian Dynasty, the leviathan poised to consume all in its wake, shattered unexpectedly; collapsing in a treachery evoked by the empire's most devoted disciple. Fracturing until forgotten, the Vylerin line dwindled and the Dynasty dissolved. But not all cinders are so easily smothered. A millennium passes and the Dynasty is reborn through the flames of conquest, Corvus Alyren granted the ancient title of Harbinger. As an Acolyte of Fate, servant to the god that stands above the Eight, the Harbinger carries great honour, and crushing responsibility. War now threatens the fledgling Dynasty as the usurper Keleron fights to depose the rightful Emperor Aelierus. Forced into a disastrous retreat after suffering a decisive defeat, sanctuary is found as the ruined city of Inathis is reclaimed. With the enemy tightening their grip, and the precipice narrows, the fate of the Dynasty rests in the hand of the Harbinger.
