Warrior Prince: An Epic Military Fantasy Novel

by Paul Bennett

Overview

A new king promises peace, but old hatreds return

After defeating the insurrection, Ludwig returns home to his family, only to be ordered back to the capital. Thrust into the responsibility of being the realm's new prince, he struggles to balance his loyalty to his sovereign with his own idea of justice.

King Morgan seeks to strengthen his new rule, but the barons of Hadenfeld are a wary lot, each determined to dominate the other. Overwhelmed by the conflict at court, he is wracked by indecision, leaving him at the mercy of outside influences.

When a new voice finds the ear of the king, Ludwig falls into disfavour. Banished to the east to bring the rebel barons to heel for their disloyalty, he makes a discovery that shakes the very foundations of the Petty Kingdoms.

But only after receiving a letter from an old friend does he realize the enemy is much closer than he ever suspected. Can he save his newly reunited kingdom, or will they fall once more into the chaos of war?

The story of an emerging leader continues in Paul J Bennett's Warrior Prince, Book Six of the Power Ascending Series.

About the Author

Paul J Bennett (b. 1961) emigrated from England to Canada in 1967. His father served in the British Royal Navy, and his mother worked for the BBC in London. As a young man, Paul followed in his father's footsteps, joining the Canadian Armed Forces. He is married to Carol Bennett and has three daughters who are all creative in their own right.Paul's interest in writing started in his teen years when he discovered the roleplaying game, Dungeons & Dragons (D &D). What attracted him to this new hobby was the creativity required, the need to create realms, worlds and adventures that pulled the gamers into his stories.In his thirties, Paul started to dabble in designing his own roleplaying system, using the Peninsular War in Portugal as his backdrop. His regular gaming group were willing victims, er, participants in helping to playtest this new system. A few years later, he added additional settings to his game, including Science Fiction, Post-Apocalyptic, World War II, and the all-important Fantasy Realm where his stories occur.The beginnings of his first book, Servant of the Crown, originated over ten years ago when he began running a new fantasy campaign. For the world that the Kingdom of Merceria is in, he ran his adventures like a TV show, with seasons that each had twelve episodes and an overarching plot. When the campaign ended, he knew all the characters, what they had to accomplish, what needed to happen to move the story along, inspiring him to sit down and write his first novel. Paul now has four series based in his fantasy world of Eiddenwerthe. He looks forward to sharing many more books with his readers over the coming years.
