The Gifted King

A Song of Ice and Fire and Elden Ring meet a Heathcliff-esque reverse telling of Beauty and the Beast in this riveting grimdark saga-starter teasing a vast, sweeping celestial war. 

The second-born son of Anchora's oldest king, Vhogare lived his life dancing just outside of the rules, every risk carefully hidden beneath an artful mask of courtesy. But when he encounters a rogue horseman heralding the end of his world, no place for honor remains. Desperate and determined, he steps up to play the celestial game-a mortal among the hearts of stars. As the sand slides through his hourglass, will he save the world he loves, or will he forsake the shield for the sword?

Perfect for fans of Game of Thrones, Elden Ring, Vikings, Peaky Blinders, and Bloodborne, The Gifted King pits villain against villain and brother against brother in an epic tale of lost love and man versus the divine.

The Gifted King is a tragic grimdark epic high fantasy villain origin story intended for an adult audience. Please see Lizabeth's website for a comprehensive list of content warnings.
