From the Backlist: Servant of the Crown
Looking for more Powder Mage stories? Check out Servant of the Crown!
This is the first Powder Mage Universe prequel novella focusing on Tamas, and it picks up right after the end (but before the epilogue) of Forsworn. Set thirty-five years before the events of Promise of Blood, this story shows the point of view of a young Captain Tamas, struggling with the Adran royal cabal, his superiors within the army, and the nobility of Adro.
It also explores his early relationship with the old Iron King and a certain half-Adran powder mage by the name of Erika…
Here’s the official blurb:
Servant of the Crown
Tamas is soon drawn into a conflict that goes to the very highest office in the land, and his only ally is the most unlikely of people; a young noblewoman named Erika, who needs Tamas to teach her how to wield her powers as a powder mage.
Captain Tamas is an ambitious young officer in the Adran army. As a commoner, he is one of very few without noble blood to hold a rank. When he challenges the son of a duke over an insult, the subsequent duel lands him in hot water with the nobility and the royal cabal of Privileged sorcerers.
