EXILED BY HIS BLOOD. HUNTED BY HIS ENEMIES. CHOSEN BY THE SKY GODS.

Darius Rarkez was on the brink of joining the elite Crimson Guard when treachery struck and turned his world on its head. Exiled and disgraced, this budding knight carved a new life among thieves in a foreign land, trading his sword for the art of stealing.

For ten bitter years, he haunted the shadows, surviving as a thief bent on one goal: fleeing Estos forever.

But freedom demands gold. And lots of it. So when the guild's most daring raid promises to deliver it, Darius seeks guidance from a reclusive seer whose visions have scarcely been wrong.

What he receives instead is a grave prophecy.

One that speaks of an old enemy and a great darkness stirring in the basin of Estos. To ignore it would condemn hundreds of thousands of lives. To bear its weight would require helping two rival kingdoms—and fighting in their war—that despise him.

The gods have spoken. The hourglass has been turned. A second great war beckons.

Will this anti-hero heed this prophecy, or will bitterness prevail?

(Book #1 of The Divided Region, a gritty, epic low fantasy series. If you love anti-heroes, sword and steel adventures, and military fantasy with a touch of grimdark, you'll enjoy Exiled.)
