Does a boy marked for death have the power to wrest mercy from the conscience of a ruthless king? Only one person can aid his fate: a mysterious woman, dwelling in secrecy, who truly wields power over life, death, and destiny.

King Severn Argentine’s fearsome reputation precedes him: usurper of the throne, killer of rightful heirs, ruthless punisher of traitors. Attempting to depose him, the Duke of Kiskaddon gambles…and loses. Now the duke must atone by handing over his young son, Owen, as the king’s hostage. And should his loyalty falter again, the boy will pay with his life.

Seeking allies and eluding Severn’s spies, Owen learns to survive in the court of Kingfountain. But when new evidence of his father’s betrayal threatens to seal his fate, Owen must win the vengeful king’s favor by proving his worth—through extraordinary means. And only one person can aid his desperate cause: a mysterious woman, dwelling in secrecy, who truly wields power over life, death, and destiny.

I have enjoyed this book and look forward to reading the rest of the series. The stories very similar to the story of Edward IV and Richard III but is still it's own. Very well written and fun and easy to read.

Masterfully done. Smart and touching. So many great characters , but Ankarette and Evie were my favorites . I hope this continues chronologically the way this book did

I loved the analogy of wizr with life. The strategy and planning that goes into the game, which is the same used to navigate life. Character development was spot on! You loved and hated characters and can’t wait to see how things turn out in the next book.
