Fool - K.R. Lockhaven

Kyrien's ascendancy from a prisoner of war to the trusted "Fool and Advisor to the God-King" has been the stuff of storybooks. He owes his dramatic reversal of fortune to Vaerain, the God-King himself. Kyrien's life in the capital city is blessed with fame, riches, and a beautiful young family.

But when a group of unknown conspirators kidnaps his son, his charmed world collapses. The people holding his son have one demand, which they believe Kyrien is in a unique position to grant-they want to know where the king, the only person in the world who wields god-like magic, derives his powers. 

As Kyrien and his wife, Acali, begin to unravel this mystery under the watchful eyes of the king and his religious zealots, they learn that their blessed life has always come at a steep cost and that a revolution is brewing among the city's poor and trampled.

The deeper they dig, the more Kyrien questions his reverence for the man he once saw as his savior. 

     Kyrien and Acali will stop at nothing to find answers and get their son back, even if it means tearing the kingdom apart.
