"A gripping fantasy set in a beautiful world of castles, tournaments and magic. The Sins of Kings will pull you in from the very first page!" --Kate Sorenson, author of No Coding with Kate "Suspenseful read that will keep you turning the pages" --Silvia Villalobos, author or Stranger or Friend Gardens of the Moon meets The Blade Itself in this new epic fantasy by debut novelist, Daniel Thomas Valente! In a kingdom fraught with power struggles, an outside force threatens to undermine the centuries-long reign of the Graymere family. At the center of the emerging conflict are young Darrin and Princess Edlen. Darrin desires to overcome the stain of his family history and rise in the ranks of the Eyes of the Forest, a group of men sworn to protect the vast forests of Onyris. Meanwhile Princess Edlen, though deeply loyal to her friends, attempts to thwart the control her royal family holds over her life by sneaking about disguised as a peasant. When a neighboring kingdom conspires against the realm, Darrin and Edlen must fight to not only survive, but pave a way forward - despite the wishes of the mercurial tempered gods and a mysterious organization known as the Voress Ní. Can they survive the ensuing chaos, or will they too be felled by forces greater than themselves? Written on a panoramic scale, The Sins of Kings is epic fantasy at its best-a beguiling epic by a promising new voice that isn't afraid to explore themes of prejudice, power, and magic all in one sweeping adventure.
Autorenporträt
Daniel Thomas Valente was born into a family whose sense of humor and love for learning was only exceeded by an unceasing amount of patience. Growing up in Canoga Park, California in the 1980's, he fell in love with all the quintessential pop-culture of his time. As well versed in He-Man, Transformers, and Ghostbusters as he was with Mr. Belvedere, and Saved by the Bell, he soon found an almost infinite realm of worlds within the books that sat dog-eared on his father's bookshelf. Avoiding college after graduating from Canoga Park High School in the year 2000, he attempted to become a rock star. As a drummer in a band most famous for their use of Twinkies, he soon laid his drumsticks down and picked up a pen. Hundreds of thousands of words later, The Sins of Kings was written. Daniel enjoys cheap beer, classic rock, and warm summers. He currently lives in Frazier Park, California with his exceedingly patient wife, two amazing daughters, a German Shepherd, and two cats. You can find him out in the garage working on his next masterpiece.
