Blood of the Chosen

Ray crossed a line. Now there's no going back.

He had to grow up fast. Life in Blue Fortress with a cruel stepfather wasn't ideal, but he had a choice to make; run away or stand up to the abuse and protect his mother. Truthfully, it wasn't a choice. That night, Marcus went too far, forcing him to fight for his life. Fear and anger unleashed powers he'd never known he had.

Ray got his revenge.

But in this grim world, his act would never go unpunished and if he wants to avoid the executioner's sword, he must run.

A hostile kingdom offers him refuge, but Ray fears being misled by his enemies' kindness. Life offers him hope to build a future, but when this new home comes under threat of war, he must choose again. Escape and leave the kingdom to its fate or wager his life to protect it.

Blood of the Chosen is the first book in the epic Cronan's Kiss adult high fantasy series, perfect for fans of heroic protagonists steeped in dark worlds rich with lore and magic.
