About this ebook

The King is dead. Demacia is mourning. And in the eyes of Garen Crownguard, it’s his fault.

But can he rise to the challenge when Demacia needs him again?

While on a peacetime expedition beyond the borders of Demacia, Garen, Quinn, and the Dauntless Vanguard uncover a plot that threatens to destroy long-standing alliances. As the knight-ranger Quinn tries to get word back to Demacia, Garen and his comrades make a desperate last stand. How long can they last, and at what cost?

A decent enough story in the league universe. Its not really breaking new ground or touching upon some unseen interesting elements but its a fine little side story.

My gosh was this amazing, you don't even need a slight knowledge of the League of Legends universe to understand and enjoy. The book is well written and features my favourite character. It's quick, enjoyable and even moving, depending on how sensitive you are... You won't regret reading this. I just wish they did a hard copy too... (Also, Riot pleeeeeease write a sequel!)

I hope that Riot has the opportunity to publish many more books. This book, among many things, emphasizes many dimensions of League characters that haven't been fully explored before. I'm a huge fan of League's lore and Anthony's previous works, and this is another winner.

Hailing from Sydney, Australia, Anthony developed a passion for gaming and the fantasy genre from a young age, which led him to pursue a career as a writer. He’s had numerous stories, games, novels, and audio dramas published over a span of twenty years, and started playing League of Legends around Season One (playing Shaco, badly). He joined Riot Games in 2014, and now lives in Seattle, Washington, with his wife, Beth, his daughter, Maya, and a pair of slightly deranged cats, the brothers Thor and Loki.
