When destiny calls there's no fighting back.

As a bard's apprentice, Kihrin grew up on heroic tales. Yet he also steals, desperate to escape Quur's slums. And when he raids the wrong house, he's marked by a demon, and life will never be the same again.

Kihrin's plight attracts royalty, who claim him as their immoral heir's lost son. However, far from living the dream, Kihrin's embroiled in his new family's ruthless schemes. Escaping just makes matters worse, as Kihrin is horrified to discover he features in an ancient prophecy. Every side - from gods to demons to dragons - wants him as their pawn.

And maybe Kihrin isn't even the hero, for he's not destined to save the empire. 

He's destined to destroy it.
