The City in the Lake

A story of life, love, intrigue and war in a world far removed from the present day. A world where true sexual equality, and freedom of personal choice and expression, are an accepted way of life. In the Five Lands of Archea, citizenship is earned through service to the state, and ultimate justice lies in the hands of one, supremely powerful, enigmatic man. While Archea battles against coastal raids and incursions by the vicious and barbaric Vargs, and the Order of Companions engages in a secret war against the Brotherhood of the Dispossessed, the young sons of Lordly houses serve three-year squireships in order to become junior officers in the ranks of the Legions. In this first book in the series, one young Squire sets out on the perilous path towards an inescapable destiny.
