A tyrant toppled, anarchy reigns.
The emperor, Kamgue, is dead; his Seal, the world's protection from the demonic legions of
Narak
, is shattered. Now they are free to rampage through the Seventh Empire, threatening the entire world. And the emperor's assassin,
Telsharu the Cursed
, has become their putative new sovereign.
ShianMai
, the dead emperor's young daughter, has become just one refugee among many, fleeing the Imperial City for her life. Along the way, she encounters unforeseen foes, unexpected allies, unpredicted love-and an undreamt role to play in the future of the empire.
The hero
Hanu Zan
and his new apprentice,
Xansul
, journey across the empire seeking the help of ancient Guardians, the only force that might be able to stop the onslaught.
The Scourge of Narak
weaves a riveting tale of courage and friendship, leadership and love, and valor and sacrifice - a stirring continuation of
The Tale of Telsharu, Book One of the Tales of the Seventh Empire
