  • "Le prince Tavis a été capturé et torturé sur les ordres du duc de Kentigern qui l'accuse du meurtre de sa fille. Le duc refuse de donner son accord indispensable comme celui des onze autres maisons ducales à l'accession au trône du père du prince Tavis, semant le chaos dans le royaume."
  • "David B. Coe, winner of the William L. Crawford Award for Best First Fantasy Series for the LonTobyn Chronicle, continues his rise to the top rank of fantasy writers with Rules of Ascension, the first novel of an exciting new epic fantasy quartet, Winds of the Forelands. For centuries the Forelands were disputed by several tribes. Then came the magically gifted Qirsi--physically no match for their foes, but capable of mindsight, creating and controlling mists and fire, and bending solid matter to their purpose. After a Qirsi traitor betrayed his race to save himself, the Qirsi were defeated and dispersed among the seven realms of the Forelands. Those specially endowed Qirsi capable of multiple powers, the Weavers, were all put to death. For centuries the Forelands enjoyed relative peace. But when Tavis, the heir to the Kingdom of Curgh, is wrongfully blamed for the murder of a noble, the accusation sets in motion a series of events culminating in civil war. The ensuing chaos topples the throne in Eibithar and threatens to rain chaos on all the realms of the Forelands. Tavis, thrust into the center of deadly controversy and stripped of the protection of his family's nobility, turns to the Qirsi, his last remaining hope for redemption. But another Qirsi traitor, secretly fomenting fear and mistrust among the Dukedoms, seeks to destroy Tavis. Tavis must survive long enough to clear his name and save an entire kingdom. A powerful, compelling tale set in an unforgettable land, rules of Ascension will capture your heart and fire your imagination. At the publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management software (DRM) applied."@en
  • "Centuries after the Qirsi Wars ended with an uneasy peace, the assassination of a royal heir whose wedding was destined to unite two realms ignites a devastating new war that renews ancient hatreds and upsets the balance of power."
  • "Le peuple Qirsi, doté de pouvoirs occultes, vit au service des princes régnants pour avoir tenté de conquérir les Terres du Devant il y a des siècles. Certains occupent des places importantes, d'autres préparent leur vengeance. En 877, suite à une vaste conspiration les deux premières maisons du royaume sont décimées. La prochaine cible est l'héritier du trône, condamné pour avoir tué sa fiancée."
