It\'s impossible not to be impressed with the ambition of it all .
Jenn Lyons begins the Chorus of Dragons series with The Ruin of Kings , an epic fantasy novel about a man who discovers his fate is tied to the future of an empire.
He\'s destined to destroy it.
For Kihrin is not destined to save the world.
Then again, maybe he isn\'t the hero after all.
The storybooks have lied about a lot of other things, too: dragons, demons, gods, prophecies, and how the hero always wins.
Practically a prisoner, Kihrin discovers that being a long-lost prince is nothing like what the storybooks promised.
When he is claimed against his will as the missing son of a treasonous prince, Kihrin finds himself at the mercy of his new family\'s ruthless power plays and political ambitions.
Kihrin grew up in the slums of Quur, a thief and a minstrel\'s son raised on tales of long-lost princes and magnificent quests.
