King of Assassins

In the acclaimed conclusion to The Wounded Kingdom trilogy, "King of Assassins" plunges readers back into the world of Maniyadoc, where years of fragile peace have lulled the enigmatic assassin Girton Club-Foot into a semblance of calm. However, this tranquility is shattered as Rufra ap Vthyr sets his sights on the vacant High-King's throne, drawing his court – and Girton – into a dangerous web of intrigue in the capital. This rat's nest of political maneuvering and murder promises to be the culmination of two decades of ambition and bloodshed. As old alliances fray and new dangers emerge, Girton finds himself caught in a deadly endgame where friends become foes and the sinister shadow of Xus the Unseen, the god of death, looms ever closer, threatening everything he holds dear. The stakes are higher than ever as the ultimate battle for power unfolds.
