Publisher's Synopsis
A country braces for war...The former cadets of the war college of Amiestrin know their king isn't just royal. He's a Seer of profound talent and, quite possibly, a madman as well. But for years now, the king and the other Seers have been predicting war, but the cadets are the ones who will have to fight it.Llelas Sevireiya has spent the past year preparing his home province for that war. When a young Seer shows up at his door with orders for him to take time out to seek out a wife, he travels to Perisen and brings one home, not one anyone expected.Thomas Farrier has plans for his life, but the marshals seem determined to upend them. Now he must adapt to a political role helping refugees who are fleeing over the border into Jenear. That assignment takes him to Sandrine, the home of his friend, Llelas.Ellis Dantreon serves as a member of the King's Bodyguard, guarding her own father. When the king decides to visit the border, the only question he has for his daughter is whether she's ready. Now she, Thomas, and Llelas must become what the Seers expect of them: the princess, the knight, and the nightrider.
