The Crown of the Conqueror / Gav Thorpe
“Thorpe writes strong, uncluttered narrative, and his characters actually sound like real people.”
- Tom Holt, SFX
Ullsaard has won the crown
But when he is confronted with a truth too shocking to contemplate, he has to make the impossible choice between power and honour.
And now the real battle has begun in this stunning sequel to The Crown of the Blood, packed with gargantuan battles, demonic magic and treacherous politics.

Praise and Reviews:
“Well written, cunningly plotted and above all else a combat story of survival that shows that Thorpe is more than prepared to slaughter a world to establish his own rule. Great stuff.”
“All in all, The Crown of the Conqueror (A+) is another excellent fantasy that I strongly recommend … the author has another winner here!”
“The Crown of the Blood should really have a warning sticker on the front… it’s one of those books that are almost impossible to put down.” – SFBook.com
