The War for the Realm — Yves Meynard

Through magic, King Edisthen has been abducted from Chrysanthe. Evered, the rebel prince, brings to bear his army against the throne; an army led by creatures out of nightmare. The land blazes with war as Evered's host heads for the seat of power. The defenders of the realm are unequal to the task, save for one who might hold the power to defeat the rebels . . . if she is willing to risk the fate of the world.
