About this ebook
A usurped prince prepares to take up the mantle of a deadly assassin and reclaim his kingdom, his people, and his slain gods in this epic fantasy from a USA Today bestselling author.
Cyrus was only twelve years old when his gods were slain, his country invaded, and his parents—the king and queen—beheaded in front of him. Held prisoner in the invader's court for years, Cyrus is suddenly given a chance to escape and claim his revenge when a mysterious group of revolutionaries comes looking for a figurehead. They need a hero to strike fear into the hearts of the imperial and to inspire and unite the people. They need someone to take up the skull mask and swords and to become the legendary "Vagrant"—an unparalleled hero and assassin of otherworldly skill.
But all is not as it seems. Creating the illusion of a hero is the work of many, and Cyrus will soon discover the true price of his vengeance.

I loved David Dalglish's books so far. I read all of them. In this new trilogy, unfortunately, I have been displeased by the mockery of Christian faith. Naming the evil boss "God-incarnate" and his representative "Anointed One" cannot be a random choice. With all the infinite fantasy names possible, choosing these is clearly intentional and offensive of faith. In addition, LGBT is over-represented, with 2 out of 5 main heroes being gay or lesbian. Probably Dalglish and his editor are too keen on pleasing the LGBT audience to realise that they also had Christians among the readers. Farewell David, I loved your books but cannot stand this new anti-christian attitude. A formerly faithful reader.
