Last Psion

A young half-elf learns he's the secret heir of a murdered king and resolves to claim his father's magic and save his country in this progression fantasy. In the world of Alterra, forged from the ruins of Ragnarök and a nearly forgotten Earth, magic is everywhere. Despite this, half-elf Kiru and his mother live a quiet existence in a remote village where nothing ever happens. Nothing, that is, until the day Kiru gets into a fight with a rich lordling who breaks his spine. Fleeing their small town together, Kiru's mother confesses an astonishing truth to her son: he is royalty, the son of the murdered King Ruken Chromebane, monarch of the Kingdom of Blades, who was wrongly accused of being a tyrant because of his rare magical abilities. Soon, Kiru begins to feel his father's unique brand of mana within himself. This power, the half-elf discovers, was all that stood between the kingdom and invasion by an army of dragons. If he can harness it, he'll be able to control his broken body and travel the continent in search of the king's lost treasures, eventually claiming his own rightful place on the throne. Accompanied by William the imp and Brunhilda, dwarven paladin in the Order of Valhalla, Kiru sets out to restore his father's legacy and save his country. Stop one: the Royal Cultivation Academy, where Kiru must navigate a complex web of relationships and personality types-all while hiding his outlawed power-to recover the first of the slain king's items . . . before it's too late.

Two friends-one an orc prince whose ancestral throne is threatened, the other an exiled half-elf-must fight to regain their families' power. Kiru the half-elf has a lot to live up to as the exiled son of the murdered King Ruken, monarch of the Kingdom of Blades. A fight with a wealthy, spoiled lordling has left him paralyzed from the neck down, but his masterful command of mana keeps his body strong and mobile. Accompanied by his imp familiar, William, and friends Brunhilda the dwarf paladin, Zhaden the gold drakonid rogue, and Mutt the kindhearted orc, he's on a mission to recover his father's lost treasures, scattered across Alterra. Mutt has never cared all that much about his clan, the M'Baku, which has ruled their homeland of Imakandi ever since its founding after Ragnarok. In truth, he's been too busy hunting and fighting, content to let political matters handle themselves. But his carefree attitude changes when he and the other members of Pandemonium discover a faction within the nation that threatens all who dwell there. Now, one of Mutt's clan must endure the Proving, a set of trials that will determine whether they're fit to lead-and keep the throne in the family. Kiru makes a deal with Mutt and his sister, queen regent Myev, to help them secure their ancestral throne if they agree to assist him in retrieving his father's items and getting the orphaned sacred beast who has attached to them safely home. As he strives to attain the rank of Ruby and he and his friends fight for their families' position and legacy, they'll endure countless battles. And they'll need all the strength they can get . . .

An exiled half-elf battles monsters and performs miracles-but there's a cost-in the epic third installment of this fantasy-adventure series. Kiru the half-elf has traveled the length and breadth of Alterra-a world born from the ruins of Ragnarok and a long-gone Earth-searching for the lost treasures of his father, the slain King Ruken. Paralyzed from the neck down by a fight with the haughty son of a nobleman, he relies on mana to keep him strong and moving. Following the defeat of the cult of Jormungandr, the orc M'Baku Myev has been crowned queen, and Kiru's loyal cultivator crew, known as Pandemonium, has found success-albeit at a significant cost. Many of their friends and allies died during the world serpent's coup, and Kiru's mental mana core has been damaged. Though it'll heal with time, that isn't a luxury he can afford. Word of the psion's exploits has reached his home in the powerful Kingdom of Blades, and his family's enemies are determined to hunt down the members of Pandemonium. Forced to flee along with his crew, Kiru must head to the Torn Empire in search of a method to quickly repair his core. Pirates, savage islanders, and monsters lurk around every corner, and his resilience and alliances will be tested. The perilous journey will challenge everything he knows about his power, where it comes from, and what he's truly capable of.
