The Seeker's Wrath (The Essence Wars #0)

The North is fracturing. The Order is rotting. And Captain Marcius Saylong is running out of time.

Sent to forge a fragile peace, Saylong is drawn instead into a storm of betrayal. Pirates strike under hidden banners. Castles fall without a fight. Heirs vanish. At the center of it all is a conspiracy that threatens to topple the realm’s last pillar of power.

To stop it, Saylong must outwit his enemies, survive a war he did not choose, and unite a people who would rather remain divided than bow to southern rule.

But unity demands more than diplomacy. It demands sacrifice. And among his few allies is a northern warrior who wants no throne, no treaty—only revenge.

The Seeker’s Wrath is a brutal, character-driven epic set in the war-torn world of Teloshka, where alliances shift like frost, justice moves slowly, and loyalty is never safe. Strategy, not swordplay, decides the future. Peace is as dangerous as war.

For readers who prefer intrigue over spectacle, consequence over comfort, and a world that remembers every debt.
