"Blessed Epoch: Book Two"

Despite their disparate natures, Yarrow, Duncan, and Sasha united against overwhelming odds to save Prince Garith s life. Now Garith is king and the three friends may be facing their undoing.

Distraught over Yarrow s departure to find the cure to his magical affliction, Duncan struggles with his new role as Bairn of Windwake, a realm left bankrupt by his predecessor. Many of Duncan s vassals conspire against him, and Sasha s unorthodox solutions to Duncan s problem have earned them the contempt of Garith s nobles.

When word reaches Duncan and Sasha that Yarrow is in danger, they want nothing more than to rush to his aid. But Duncan s absence could tip Windwake into the hands of his enemies. In addition, a near-mythic order of assassins wants Sasha dead. Without Yarrow, Duncan and Sasha can t take the fight to the assassins. They are stuck, entangled in a political world they don t understand. But finding Yarrow may cause more problems, and with his court divided, King Garith must strike a balance between supporting his friends and assuaging the nobles who want Duncan punished and Sasha executed.
