The Agonizomai Series #2
Born in Darkness
A disgraced prince.
A realm on the verge of ruin.
Can he escape a second exile?
In the overgrown gardens of Agera, Henry promised Princess Iyanka that he’d tell her his story. For anyone else, the promise would lay dormant. Even in its entirety, Henry’s story isn’t one to trifle with…
Eero Henry, second son of the great King Duna of Ecleath. The most powerful young sorcerer of his age and the scourge of the Theophiloi. Henry was raised to depend on magic, to do what was required of him, and to never question his father’s orders.
Except there are some bonds stronger than loyalty to his king. When tragedy turns Henry against his father, he’s exiled to face the world that turned its back on Ecleath. As an outcast, being Eero is only a target on his back. And it’s not only foreigners who hunt him…sorcerers follow his footsteps, threatening his efforts to make a new life. They nearly accomplish their goal…until Henry is swept up in an exile of another kind, this time for a people not his own.
Imprisoned and forced to face his past, Henry questions if what he’s been taught about magic, and the Theophiloi, is true. Maybe magic isn’t the true strength he’s been told.
But if that’s the case, what hope does he have? Can someone born in darkness ever truly escape?
