The past always has a way of returning...
The magical, inhuman Lethean Empire erupts into civil war as Verletzt, a bold idealist, challenges the ruling Priesthood and their stagnant doctrine. The Iconoclast movement struggles desperately against the brutal theocrats to win freedom and lead their people to a glorious new destiny.
Five thousand years later, war is brewing again among the humans of Varice. A young prince must embrace his responsibilities and follow in his father’s footsteps to keep the peace. But the discovery of a mysterious, ancient artifact abruptly alters the balance of power.
On Kiynan, Kayla Freeland foresees an approaching, worldwide apocalypse. The devastating threat is somehow connected to hidden elemental forces and to the long-vanished civilization of the Letheans. Racing against time, she assembles an expedition to delve into the past and solve the riddle of her visions before it is too late.

The Legacy of Lethe is both sequel and prequel to “The Conquest of Kiynan” but can be read as a stand-alone book. The story is split across multiple viewpoint characters, forced to navigate conflict, heartbreak, coming of age and magic. The threads are gradually woven together, leading to a single, thrilling conclusion.
