Loyalty has a price. Betrayal demands a reckoning.

Risens is the King’s Rightmaker, the silent justice of Halthome, whose word is law and whose blade ensures absolute obedience. Operating in a kingdom built on the raw power of Brands, Risens, despite his deadly skill, is an anomaly: a Brandless assassin whose only loyalty is to the Crown.

His orders are simple: None must survive.

A routine execution of a treacherous noble, Duke Karieas, goes horribly wrong when a singular act of mercy compromises his identity to the city guard. Now hunted by his former colleagues, Risens is forced to question his allegiance to a “false king.”

Drawn by an unseen force, Risens is pulled into the forbidden Raven’s Court, a place of forgotten power. There, he receives the first of the Forbidden Brands, granting him access to The Roost and its grueling trials.

To survive the conspiracies and assassins arrayed against him, Risens must master his power through “Struggle, pain, and adaptation.”

Stripped of allegiance and empowered by an ominous, commanding voice, Risens must navigate deadly political conspiracies and master his new destiny. The King wants him dead, but the Raven has other plans.
