Dethroning the King

It is said that brothers have a special bond; those raised together will forever know and understand each other like no one else, but brotherly love means nothing in the world of kings. As far as Dace Colletto is concerned, that brotherly bond between him and his older brother was all a lie. There are no words that can be spoken that can heal the wounds his brother has inflicted upon him. There are no acts of love that can provoke forgiveness for the pain his brother has caused him. Peace has not breathed around Dace since before his mother's death. And now, now there is only one thing that can bring peace amongst Dace's family. Now, he must destroy his brother, and put an end to his reign for good. There is no question what he must do, the only questions that remain for Dace are about the ones he loves. Can he triumph and still keep his youngest brother Antony from acting too impulsively and getting himself killed? Can Dace keep his true love, Austin, from falling into a trap and becoming another one of his brother's victims? Can he bring an army together strong enough to battle his brother's?

There is no question that there will be bloodshed. Someone will fall, and there is no doubt that an end will come to someone's reign, but who will be wearing the crown at the end of this deadly game?
