INTRIGUE IN THE TWIN KINGDOMS

When Zenjiro came to the Kingdom of Capua, he hoped for a laid-back sponger's lifestyle, but now he'll do anything to protect his wife and children. With a new baby on the way, he's traveled abroad to the Twin Kingdoms, hoping to secure a magical healer to help with childbirth. Yet no sooner did he arrive than the king declared his intent to abdicate the throne! A royal succession is never a simple affair, but Zenjiro is at risk of being used as a pawn in the intrigues of foreign royalty. Hidden truths lurk behind public facades in a nation where the ancient traditions of the desert struggle against newfound feudal customs. When a shocking revelation threatens to draw the Kingdom of Capua even further into local affairs, Zenjiro's not about to take it lying down!

Zenjiro's life is anything but laid back. So much is happening with his visit to the Twin Kingdoms...it's a wonder these kingdoms have maintained peace over the last 50 years! When underhanded tactics begin to show themselves and Zenjiro's family seems to be being placed in the center of the political warfare....actions shall be made and the wild game of chess is about to get wilder. Another fun volume that shocks me as I dont need a lot of action in this series to stay glued to the pages.

Who would have guessed political intrigue would be so much fun.
