Emperor of the Borderlands Book 10
(2027)(The tenth book in the Emperor of the Borderlands series)
A novel by Eugene Astakhov and Alex Toxic
‘A ruler owes his people three things: bread, protection and justice.’
Bread I have '' my fields now feed twice the mouths they should. Protection I have built with magic and steel. Justice is harder. My town grows faster than I can watch it, and with the honest come the crooked: thieves, spies and, one night, a murderer. Walls keep monsters out. Law must keep them from growing within.
Meanwhile, the dynasties that have ruled the rare-metal trade for centuries declare a silent war on my forges — blocked roads, bought officials, hired muscle. The Academic Council would rather see talent rot in the fields than teach magic to a peasant's child. And a fortress full of caged innocents still waits for someone reckless enough to storm it.
My enemies are all certain of something: that gold decides everything, that law can be bought, that walls make them untouchable. I intend to disabuse them of all three.
Genre: GameLit
