Publisher's summary

King of the Rising is the searing conclusion to an unflinching and powerful Caribbean-inspired fantasy series about colonialism, resilience, and defiance.

A revolution has swept through the islands of Hans Lollik, and former slave Loren Jannik has been chosen to lead the survivors in a bid to free the islands forever.

But the rebels are running out of food, weapons, and options. And as the Fjern inch closer to reclaiming Hans Lollik with every battle, Loren is faced with a choice that could shift the course of the revolution in their favor - or doom it to failure.

Critic reviews

"Graphic action and violence; flawed protagonists; and a stark, storm-filled setting all combine into a riveting read. The second half of this duology is a powerful look at colonialism, oppression, and rebellion, and all that it can cost the individuals involved." (Library Journal)

King of the Ris9

Well I a bit disappointed in this book. After reading the first and waiting so long.....for audible version it was definitely not what I expected!! The protagonist was definitely way too naive and open. There must be a 3rd book because I was left saddened and shaking my head!! Not at all what I expected After first book.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
