The Broken Empire

Prince of Thorns introduces Prince Honorous Jorg Ancrath, a ruthless leader of bloodthirsty thugs. At nine, Jorg watched his mother and brother brutally murdered, an event that left him pinned on thorns and forever changed. Now, by thirteen, he's a hardened leader, and by fifteen, he intends to seize the throne. Driven by an unquenchable rage, Jorg sees life and death as mere games, having nothing left to lose. He returns to his father’s castle, determined to reclaim his birthright. However, treachery and dark magic infest the castle walls, pitting Jorg against enemies whose power far exceeds his imagination. Can this fierce, young prince conquer such formidable foes and become king?

In book two of the Broken Empire trilogy, eighteen-year-old King Jorg Ancrath has seized the throne, but the crown is a heavy weight. He achieved his position through torture and treachery, a path fueled by a nine-year-old's vow to avenge his slaughtered family. Now, haunted by the pain of his past and plagued by nightmares of his atrocities, Jorg remains consumed by rage and his need for revenge. An overwhelming enemy force marches on his castle, threatening to crush his reign. Jorg knows a fair fight is unwinnable. His only hope lies in a long-hidden cache of ancient artifacts—some might call them magic—whose terrible secrets he intends to unleash, a desperate and deadly gamble against impossible odds.

In the final installment of the Broken Empire Trilogy, twenty-year-old King Jorg Ancrath rules seven nations, yet his quest for revenge against his father remains unfulfilled, and his inner demons rage stronger than ever. Jorg's next ambition is to become emperor, a title gained not by conquest, but by securing a majority vote—a feat never achieved in living memory. Armed with newly uncovered lost technology, Jorg is determined to shatter tradition and claim the throne. However, he soon confronts his most formidable adversary: the Dead King, a powerful necromancer universally hated and feared even more than Jorg himself. This ultimate clash will decide the fate of the Broken Empire and whether Jorg can finally escape his haunted past.
