Then he raids the wrong house, has to flee from a demon, and life will never be the same again.His plight attracts royalty, who claim him as their immoral prince's lost son. But far from living the dream, Kihrin's at the mercy of his new family's ruthless ambitions. However, escaping makes matters worse.

Those old stories lied about many things too: especially the hero always winning. Then again, maybe Kihrin isn't the hero, for he's not destined to save the empire. He's destined to destroy it.'Everything epic fantasy should be: rich, cruel, gorgeous, brilliant, enthralling and deeply, deeply satisfying' Lev Grossman 'One hell of a ride' Glen Cook'A fantastic page-turner with a heady blend of great characters . . .

Über den Autor
Jenn Lyons lives in Atlanta, Georgia, with her husband, three cats and a nearly infinite number of opinions on anything from Sumerian mythology to the correct way to make a martini. She is a video game producer by day, and spends her evenings writing science-fiction, fantasy and paranormal mysteries. A long-time devotee of storytelling, she traces her geek roots back to playing first edition Dungeons & Dragons in grade school and reading her way from A to Z in the school's library. The Ruin of Kings is the first in the series A Chorus of Dragons.
