Elvenborn

AN ELVENLORD EMBATTLED

For generations, elvenlords have ruled the world, holding sway over humans and halfbloods alike. But the peace was shattered when the Elvenbane emerged to lead a rebellion against them. And now the elvenlords' own children, grown old enough to want their own power, have begun their own revolt, and are seizing the houses of noble elvenlords.

The elvenlords need a new military leader, and they find one in Kyrtian, a quiet, unambitious elvenlord who has studied the art of war since his father disappeared years ago while searching for the Great Portal through which the elvenborn came to this world.

Kyrtian proves to be the elvenlords' best military mind. But as he fights the young lords, his scheming cousins Aelmarkin and Triana are hatching a plot to take over his estates. And his greatest supporter, Lord Kyndreth, is as wily a politician as any among the elite. Kyrtian can defeat any foe on the field of battle . . . but can he survive his "allies"?
