Resumen del Editor

Action, intrigue, and magic collide in the second book in an epic fantasy trilogy, where Sir Konrad Vonvalt’s role as an Emperor’s Justice requires him to be a detective, judge, and executioner all in one—but these are dangerous times to be a Justice . . .

A Justice’s work is never done.

The Battle of Galen’s Vale is over, but the war for the Empire’s future has just begun. Concerned by rumors that the Magistratum’s authority is waning, Sir Konrad Vonvalt returns to Sova to find the capital city gripped by intrigue and whispers of rebellion. In the Senate, patricians speak openly against the Emperor, while fanatics preach holy vengeance on the streets.

Yet facing down these threats to the throne will have to wait, for the Emperor’s grandson has been kidnapped—and Vonvalt is charged with rescuing the missing prince. His quest will lead him—and his allies Helena, Bressinger and Sir Radomir—to the southern frontier, where they will once again face the puritanical fury of Bartholomew Claver and his templar knights—and a dark power far more terrifying than they could have imagined.

"Richard Swan's sophisticated take on the fantasy genre will leave readers hungry for more." – Sebastien de Castell on The Justice of Kings

“A fantastic debut.” – Peter McLean on The Justice of Kings

Solid follow up

Lucy Patterson’s performance is amazing. This is definitely a solid, follow up to the first book. Looking forward to book 3.

fantastic

I'm loving the characters and the series I just hate the long wait for the next book

Superb

Masterfully written and read. Better than the first. Fast-paced and interesting. Definitely worth your credit.

5/5 STARS!

Like its predecessor, great story, awesome writing, great adventure, with horror elements! The horror bit starts to take the stage here. Is it grim dark? Is it horror? A mystery?Cannot decide. Cannot wait for the next one

Not as good as the first

The plot sort of felt all over the place, and unlike the first book I didn't feel as engaged with the events that were happening. I did like the climax of the book, but getting there was a bit hard at times. Several times I had to stop the book and pick it back up again after weeks-long breaks until my interest could be piqued again.

I still plan to get the next book, but it felt like the writer was trying to fit too much into a single book.

Great adventure

Loved this latest book in the series. Vonvalt is a fascinating chapter who shows a bit of his romantic side in this story. I read historical romance so I loved these parts. This story would make a great film series with an amazing leading man.

An excellent smart story

If this author does as well as he has done with these first two books with the third one, this series will go up into my top ten list right along side Abercrombie, Martin, Zelazny, Sanderson, Herbert and Rothfuss ( if he EVER gets his act together and finishes his story) this is an extremely well written book with nicely fleshed out interesting believable characters all with there strengths and weaknesses, a good plot, and good world building. Excellent writer and excellent narration as well. Though her screams can be a little grating they are appropriate.

Excellent continuation of the story

Great second book in a trilogy. Helena can be annoying some of the time. There were some wild twists in this one! Excited to continue. This is definitely not a series for anyone with a weak stomach. Amazing characters. I cried when one particular character died.

Definitely worth picking up

Awesome story, with impressive emoting by the narrator. Now I have to wait for the next one...

Ok Helena; ok Sir Konrad

Amazing delivery by the narrator, and of course amazing story by the author. It started off a tad slow but worked its way up on the suspense and conflict!
