The Hittites have a thousand gods: gods of love and luck, of day and night, and of life and death. They mingle among mortals and meddle in their affairs.
Joren has never thought of himself as blessed by the gods, but this young orphan is about to realize that the gods have great plans for him. For Joren is in fact the queen's heir, spirited away after her murder. Joren has been touched by death and by destiny, and now he must fight for his kingdom.
Along the way, he confronts werewolves and dragons, finds love and friendship, and discovers who he truly is.
Will he be the noble and righteous ruler the kingdom so desperately needs? Or will he fall to the beasts, mortals, and gods who want him dead?
In this new swords and sorcery novel, author John E. Boyle has crafted an immersive fantasy world full of characters you can't help but root for. Fans of Conan the Barbarian will find Joren a worthy successor.
