The Emperor's Blades

In a world teetering on the brink of chaos, the emperor of Annur is assassinated, leaving his scattered children—Kaden, Valyn, and Minister Adare—grappling with their fates amidst unseen enemies and divine forces. Kaden, the heir, has secluded himself in a mountain monastery to master ancient powers, while Valyn undergoes grueling training as an elite soldier preparing to rescue him. Meanwhile, Adare, newly appointed Minister, fights to uncover her father's murderers and seek justice for their fallen leader. This thrilling audiobook also features a bonus short story, "The Last Abbot of Ashk’lan," by Brian Staveley.
