A Broken Winter - E-book - ePub

General Auryn Tyrus is tired of serving an emperor who turns political dissidents into expensive steak and claims to have swallowed Ankari's sun. He is fed up with pretending not to know Emperor Haken is buying biological weapons and collecting taxes for a war that doesn't exist. Auryn's role in the entire mirage leads him to drastic choices, but unexpected news halts his plans. Seven-year-old Keita Kaneko, the son of a former lover, is captured by the emperor's special forces.
Auryn secretly intervenes and spares Keita from execution. Keita changes everything. Instead of feeling helpless and oppressed by a self-proclaimed living god, Auryn works to expose the emperor as a fraud. But he knows exactly will happen if he's discovered, and the extent of Emperor Haken's lies is worse than anticipated. If Auryn expects anyone to believe the truth, he's going to need proof. And a lot of help.
