Fantasy fans, rejoice! Hard on the heels of The Percheron Saga comes another rich adventure from the wondrous pen of Fiona McIntosh. A young prince, forced to watch as his family is murdered by a barbarian ruler, flees with only a single warrior not much older than he. There are things he already knows but secrets that were kept that could destroy him or make him stronger. As he and his protector make their way from the only home he's ever known the entire Set is bowing under the brutal rule of the barbarian and only he can bring the throne back to where it belongs, if he can survive. He doesn't know it, but there are still people he left behind who will do anything to keep the secret of his escape; anything including murder and turning traitor. Set in a rich fantasy world with believable characters, Royal Exile is the beginning of an exciting new tale indeed.
