Assassins

In the aftermath of the Great War, the land of Nostraterra lies in ruins. While the Elves, Dwarves and Men rebuild their kingdoms, a sinister plan has been set in motion: the assassination of Alfrahil, Crown Prince of Eldora.

As fire rains down within the city walls, young prince Alfrahil rides for his life and escapes. Braving unforeseen dangers, he is determined to unmask the conspirators and discover the truth.

Clues point towards Alfrahil’s brother, Prince Daerahil, and the scheming First Minister, Mergin. But who is really behind the conspiracy?

The first book in David N. Pauly's 'The Fourth Age Shadow Wars', Assassins is a fast-paced dark fantasy novel where present-day politics are recast within a rich and complex fantasy world, whose inhabitants confront realistic dangers, overcome adversity, and experience heartrending losses in their battles to survive. Assassins will take you on an epic journey within the intricate world of Nostraterra, where the magic of hope vies against the sorcery of despair.
