When a killer strikes from the shadows young prince Colmeron is torn from the comfort of his father's castle and sent into hiding with the man he's sure is the traitor. Secluded in a distant refuge, Col comes to know the power of his ancestors, the Earthkings: men with the power to shape and control the land. But will that be enough to save the kingdom when an ancient enemy returns to free their long captive master?
Christopher C. Hall's premier YA fantasy novel follows in the tradition of classic fantasy with rich story telling, relatable characters, and an exploration of the deeper moral questions that we all face in difficult times. Publisher's Weekly called Earthking, "...a fast-paced and absorbing fantasy, filled with imaginative backstory...Readers should easily sympathize with Col as he overcomes tragedy and adversity to become the leader his people need." Earthking is the first in a series, with the 2nd book arriving in Spring of 2024.
