Publication Information
Just a year ago, all seemed well in the March Kingdoms: Peace reigned in the land; the Eddon family ruled securely; and court and commoners alike were thriving. Then, as suddenly as a stroke of lightning, the royal family is shattered; King Olin captured and carted far away; his rightful heir Kendrick struck down; and his two siblings left frantic and on the run, barely escaping with their own lives.
