{"product_id":"2940016791623","title":"Crown Of The Users","description":"There is trouble in Amagon. Users of the magick are running rampant, the Lord Protector has nearly been assassinated, and Kinraigan, the most insidious of all these users, is lurking in the shadows. In all this there is only one question on everyone’s mind: how can you stop a man who wields the power to kill with a thought? \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCall upon a Glasseye. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGlasseyes are elite hunters, possessing the skills to trace the afterglow of magick to track rogue users down, sending the most untouchable criminals to burn in the fires. In a world where the most common weapons are still sword and spear, users of the infamous magick are the most dangerous creatures to walk the earth, and Aaron has been trained to hunt and capture any who use such powers to commit their crimes. Aaron is the youngest and best of the Glasseyes—at least that is what he keeps trying to prove to everyone—and he is determined to eliminate rogue users from the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen a user attempts to kill the Lord Protector, Aaron is thrust into the most important trace of his life, and he jumps to the challenge, eager to prove to himself and to the world that he is more than just the boy everyone sees, but as he takes the reins for the first time, he discovers that the results of a trace can go far deeper than he ever imagined.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHe takes with him Corrin, the one friend he knows he can trust. Corrin never encountered a problem he couldn’t chop apart with a sword, throw a few bottles of wine at, or lure between the sheets. He is a master swordsman—or so he claims, with a tongue as sharp as his blade, and a knack for accidentally getting out of all the trouble he intentionally brings on himself. He is Aaron’s best friend, and his exact opposite. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAaron leads an expedition across three kingdoms in search of the cruel and unpredictable user, Kinraigan, but just when he thinks the trace is within his grasp, he is forced to confront the possibility that the reason he was sent on this mission may have been a lie. With the world he knows crashing down around him, Aaron must find Kinraigan and stop him from using the ancient Crown of the Sephors to remake the world as an abomination. But is Kinraigan his only enemy? Is he an enemy at all? In the struggle for ultimate power, friends become foes, and trust slips into betrayal. Surrounded by deception, and with the life of the woman he loves hanging in the balance, Aaron discovers the thin line between duty and obsession, and must decide if his own desires are worth the cost. The only hope is for Corrin to choose to do the one thing he never prepared for—accept responsibility for the life of a young child who may be the key to an ancient mystery, while Aaron must confront the same power that killed his mother, follow the same quest that ruined his father, and resist a dark addiction that threatens to engulf him. Amid plots and counterplots, triumph and tragedy, ancient myths and dark secrets, they must both struggle to survive a deadly game they never intended to play.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Thomas Howard Riley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47071490834672,"sku":"2940016791623","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940016791623_p0.jpg?v=1763641533","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940016791623","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
