Three wars, three heroes. As the cards predicted, three conflicts tear through the once-mighty empire, and three heroes rise to confront the challenge. Prince Nicolas finds himself at the center of a civil war he regrets more than anyone, and the centerpiece of his father's plans to become the new emperor. Separated by cruel politics from the princess he loves, surrounded by enemies on every front, he learns that ambition and survival are one and the same. As death and darkness overwhelm his village, Housethrall Jak leads a small band of survivors on a desperate journey through an underground nightmare. Along the way, he discovers the knowledge to fight back against demon and devil. But will he lose himself and all he holds dear in the process? Surviving impossible odds to warn the kingdoms of invasion from abroad, Soldier Yohan seeks only a brief respite from the fighting and time to repair his wounded heart. Yet even as new companions gift him with an unexpected appreciation for life, he finds that in the Empire of Twelve Kingdoms, love and tragedy are not so easily escaped. HEARTS of FIRE is the second book in the EMPIRE ASUNDER fantasy saga, featuring political intrigue, turbulent warfare, and star-crossed romance.
