Militis

A king without a crown. A nation in peril. And a threat not even the Saints could have foreseen.

It's been four years since the rebellion that changed Southborn forever. Drought plagues the land. Many fear famine. Barefoot monks wander the streets, preaching the Great Maker's curse on Southborn's corruption.

He fights a war that is unseen. A great threat looms over Southborn—King Tanor hides in his palace, slowly growing mad while his council rules the land in his stead. Antony Bronson must rise up and become the hidden king his people need.

She fights a war she cannot win. Adelaide Highmoor has lived a life of peace since the rebellion—but accusations of murder threaten her livelihood. Nothing short of raising the dead will clear the suspicion.

She fights a war within. Princess Mairi is on the brink of entering a union that would finally bring North and South together. Betrothed to King Tanor's son, she is forced into a court that hates her—and some who want her dead.

In the second installment of the Vispilio series, true kings don't sit on thrones. Duty waits for no man. Secrets—and soldiers—don't stay buried.

The curse is here. The only cure is war.
