Blood of the Realm: Book I of The Nayoran Saga

For three centuries House Albareen has ruled the Nayoran Peninsula, enduring through invasions, uprisings and the endless machinations of the noble Houses.

Now the Albareen face their most desperate hour. A king in decline… rivals plotting to seize the throne… and a cabal of mages, outlawed and persecuted, on the verge of re-discovering their ancient strength. And with it, the power to conquer the Peninsula… or to destroy it.

Blood of the Realm is the first book in The Nayoran Saga, an epic fantasy cycle by Lee Sanders and Michael McNelly.
