The Lost Prince

The sudden death of the Steward leaves the Kingdom in turmoil. With his young, inexperienced son on the throne and war threatening, the people are desperate for a miracle. Aster, a young farmboy, is just another one of these people, until the Kingdom's first and only Lady Knight approaches him and presents to him the legendary Excalibur, the sword of Kings. Unwilling to turn his back on people who need him, Aster reluctantly takes up the mantle his long dead father, the previous King, left him. However, even simply claiming his throne turns out to be far more difficult than he expected as sickness, bandits and even demons stand in his way. First in The Sword of Kings trilogy.
