To the shock of his entire country, the great King Aston of Rainier died. In his final decree, he offered his daughter Fatima the choice to rule his kingdom - also another stunning surprise. With the decision to take up her inheritance, Fatima faces immediate complications. The enemy to Rainier is still hiding somewhere within her father's long list of loyal friends and international allies. King Deut-wah continues a persistent pursuit of her hand and an alliance with her country. And then of course there is Pelles, who promised her he would find a way back to her if he can overcome the life-threatening challenges that bar his way. He is still exiled, still hated by his powerful brother, and he made her those promises before he knew she would be queen. In this final chapter of the Forgotten Palace Series, Fatima must navigate all of the challenges before her, including her own heart's reaction to all of these difficulties, which at times poses the greatest conflict of all.

Pages : 325
Book Description
The gods may have been restored to their rightful seats of power—but the end of the Time of Troubles does not mark the end of all strife Although the gods have regained their powers and no longer walk in the mortal world, there is still little peace between them. When their deeply engrained power struggles erupt once more, ex-comrades Mystra—formerly known as Midnight and recently elevated to godhood—and Cyric are bound together in conflict. Cyric, now the god of strife, murder, and the dead, has become even more obsessed with power and revenge. No longer content with just the Tablets of Fate, he wants the Forgotten Realms all to himself—and to rule them in the name of evil. Only Mystra, the new goddess of magic, has the ability to defeat him and restore the balance that has been lost.
