LORD OF FATE by Brian Niemeier
Our own Brian Niemeier is asking the generous readers to support a kickstarter for the second volume of his Arkwright Cycle dark fantasy epic:
A holy warrior plagued by doubt …
A cloistered mystic yoked with rulership …
A fated prophet seeking the powers of life and death …
Besieged by a ruthless prince and a cruel legion, the free port of Dailij seems doomed.
Trapped in the embattled city and lionized by its desperate people, imperial envoy Zebrin finds his faith tested by their newly elevated queen. Spies and traitors seek to topple the walls from within. The quest for the Burned Book stands on the brink of failure.
To survive, Zebrin must discover his place in the prophecies reshaping the world. But when solving an ancient riddle of tragic love means choosing between his honor and his soul, will Zebrin find strength enough to save the fallen savior? Or will evils not of the world reign over it?
The choice lies with the Lord of Fate.
