L Nicodemus Lyons

In the Eyes of the King L Nicodemus Lyons

While Justus' daughter makes plans to study on Mount Avalee in Teman, Stephen struggles to reconcile his love for her and his inability to care for her. While she's gone, Anna meets a strange young woman who is more than she appears to be. In Rygia, Justus Corden begins to search for a true prince to rule the realm. But an old enemy seeks revenge against him by enlisting the help of a ghost from Justus' past. When Caledron comes to collect on Rygia's debt, Justus doubts they'll be able to pay and fears for the future of his realm. Mirroring Rygia's dilemma, a familiar young maiden suffers the consequences of her slovenly father's debts. Only the righteous king of Teman can offer atonement, both for the maiden and for the realm. But not everyone is willing to accept it, and their choices may lead to dire consequences. The seven books of The Alliance series deal with one man's spiritual journey and his efforts to find the true king. As he attempts to spread the light of God to his people, an ancient evil threatens both his land and Teman, the neighboring realm of righteous believers. The two formerly antagonistic realms must learn to work together to dispel this encroaching evil. Yet a growing number of dissenters believe they might be better off following the stronger, darker power. The race of people who call themselves Rygian become caught in the middle of a struggle between ancient enemies-those who fear God and those who follow this darker power. The Rygians' own mysterious beginnings may hold the key to their future, if only they can discover who they truly are. Through the lives of the characters, many Christian traits and spiritual truths are exemplified. The Alliance is marked by epic battles, political intrigue, suspense, mystery, and romance.
