With His Head Tucked Underneath His Arm — Bruce Coville

Seven kings ruled the continent of Losfar, and each one hated the others. War was constant, yet, as always, some resisted.

When the young pacifist Brion is unjustly executed, he is so infuriated he returns from the dead with a plan that will shake the kingdom to its roots.
