Emperor of Thorns (The Broken Empire, Bk 3)
Emperor of Thorns - The Broken Empire, Bk 3
Author:
To reach the throne requires that a man journey. Even a path paved with good intentions can lead to hell, and my intentions were never good. — The Hundred converge for Congression to politic upon the corpse of Empire, and while they talk the Dead King makes his move, and I make mine. The world is cracked, time has run through, ... more »
This is where the wise man turns away. This is where the holy kneel and call on God. These are the last miles, my brothers. Don't look to me to save you. Don't think I will not spend you. Run if you have the wit. Pray if you have the soul. Stand your ground if courage is yours. But don't follow me.
Follow me, and I will break your heart.
Mark Lawrence brings to a thrilling close his epic trilogy of a boy who would be king, a king who would desire an empire—and an empire on the edge of destruction…
King Jorg Ancrath is twenty now -- and king of seven nations.
His goal -- revenge against his father -- has not yet been realized, and the demons that haunt him have only grown stronger. Yet no matter how tortured his path, he intends to take the next step in his upward climb.
For there is only one power worth wielding…absolute power.
Jorg would be emperor. It is a position not to be gained by the sword but rather by vote. And never in living memory has anyone secured a majority of the vote, leaving the Broken Empire long without a leader. Jorg has plans to change that -- one way or the other. He’s uncovered even more of the lost technology of the land, and he won’t hesitate to use it.
But he soon finds an adversary standing in his way, a necromancer unlike any he has ever faced -- a figure hated and feared even more than himself: the Dead King.
The boy who would rule all may have finally met his match...
