Blood of Jackals (Lords of Legan)

By Todd Marcelas Moreno

Ashincor Linse, once a powerful duke but now a pat?r in Holy Orders, is a man driven by two goals. The first is to secure his grandson on the throne of Legan, despite their estrangement and years of separation. That is the aim he admits to his religious superior, in his request to return to Pablen Palace. The second however is to solve with finality the mystery of his daughter's murder, and to bring justice to any who may have yet escaped it. This, his secret vow, but no less sacred, he can admit to no one. Surviving the fall of the old count-grandee, and the vengeful attempt on his life, Jordan Poss?r has made himself an integral part of Legan's government. Still he dreams of wearing the planetary crown, and with the help of his sister's Dark Arts, he is poised to make Legan his own. But as he navigates the waters of competing ambitions among its major power brokers, his greatest threat comes from members of his own House. Beyond having better claims to the throne, these rivals have their own supporters, both in government, and among the planet's elite. For every contender, the game is all or nothing, the winner being the one who can gather the right allies, and outmaneuver those enemies refusing to yield. As forces are marshaled and pieces are moved, even the smallest of actions can tip the plans of the most meticulous. And while all place their bets and make their plays, one man works his way back to what was lost. If he succeeds, a weakened Legan might again flourish. But if he fails, darkness will fall on all who remain.
