The Cursed Heir

By Adam Schrag

A cursed heir. A dying realm. Powers he never asked for-and may not survive.

They call him Maledictus-the Cursed One. If he fails, a war is lost. If he survives, everything he knows will change.

Fifteen-year-old Jaden Frost has always kept his guard up. Between bouncing through foster homes and learning the hard way not to trust anyone, he's perfected the art of survival. But when a stranger shatters his world with one violent encounter, Jaden learns the truth he was never meant to know:

He's not from Earth.
He's the lost son of a queen.
And he's cursed with powers that could destroy him.

In the war-torn realm of Arrortha, Jaden is no hero-he's a target. Hunted by monstrous beasts, manipulated by allies, and haunted by powers he can't control, he must decide if he's going to fight for a world he's never known... or let it burn.

Because in Arrortha, destiny isn't chosen. It's demanded.

Perfect for fans of Percy Jackson and An Ember in the Ashes, The Cursed Heir is a gripping YA fantasy filled with magic, betrayal, and a legacy forged in fire.
