A ghostwriter for NYT bestsellers teams up with an award-winning editor to create this highly addictive urban fantasy... Once an heir to a tyrant's throne, illusionist Leonidas Rex is now exiled in the million acre forests of Washington State where he scrapes a living breaking gods and monsters out of secret magical prisons. In his trusty C-class RV, Leonidas lives a life on the run, accompanied by a mute marksman and a childhood sweetheart with a past even deadlier than his own. But when he's blackmailed into taking a suicide mission into a mutinied prison overrun by a crazed clan of genies, he's forced to rediscover a long-buried weapon and confront a horror from a previous life. If the once-prince fails, he just might ignite the hidden and secret places of the world into an all out civil war. If you liked the worlds of Jim Butcher, Benedict Jacka, Shayne Silvers, RL King, Sarah J. Maas, Kevin Hearne, Steve McHugh, Michael Anderle, Ilona Andrews, Patricia Briggs, Shannon Mayer, Charlaine Harris or K.F. Breene, then prepare to fall in love again!
