A new land and a new start for the Almari people
but have they brought an old enemy with them?
As the old country breaks down, ravaged by earthquakes and plague, an advance fleet of Almari ships sets out in search of the mythical paradise island that some believe awaits them far across the sea. They find a wonderful land, but a land with voices in the night and many mysteries to solve. And what has become of High King Lantor? When more ships are finally seen on the horizon, do they bring the old powers with them -- or plague, disaster and new enemies? Young Zenton and his cousin are finding their strengths and becoming the leaders of their generation, but what will they do when dissent and violence break out in paradise?
It should have been a sanctuary -- the refuge promised in legend.
The Almari should have been safe here.
High King is an insightful fantasy, a rites of passage novel
set in a land of danger, mystery and challenge.
