Set in Williams’ New York Times bestselling
fantasy world, the second book of The Last King of Osten Ard
returns to the trials of King Simon and Queen Miriamele as
threats to their kingdom loom…
The kingdoms of Osten Ard have been at peace for decades,
but now, the threat of a new war grows to nightmarish
proportions.
Simon and Miriamele, royal husband and wife, face danger
from every side. Their allies in Hernystir have made a pact
with the dreadful Queen of the Norns to allow her armies to
cross into mortal lands. The ancient, powerful nation of
Nabban is on the verge of bloody civil war, and the fierce
nomads of the Thrithings grasslands have begun to mobilize,
united by superstitious fervor and their age-old hatred of
the city-dwellers. But as the countries and peoples of the
High Ward bicker among themselves, battle, bloodshed, and
dark magics threaten to pull civilizations to pieces. And
over it all looms the mystery of the Witchwood Crown, the
deadly puzzle that Simon, Miriamele, and their allies must
solve if they wish to survive.
But as the kingdoms of Osten Ard are torn apart by fear and
greed, a few individuals will fight for their own lives and
destinies—not yet aware that the survival of everything
depends on them.
