Produktbeschreibung

Some oaths are written in blood. Some legacies are born in darkness.

The Order of the Dragon - Book Two unfolds as Vlad Dracul, a 15th-century Wallachian prince sworn to defend Christendom as a knight of the Order of the Dragon, navigates a treacherous world of political intrigue, family betrayal, and the ever-present Ottoman threat. Torn between loyalty to his people and devotion to his family, Vlad's ambition to reclaim his birthright leads him down a bloody path, forcing him to make impossible choices and embrace his ruthless nature. But power often requires sacrifice. When the Ottomans demand his young sons as hostages, Vlad faces an agonizing choice that will echo through history.

As the crusader armies clash with Ottoman forces along the Danube, Vlad discovers that survival requires more than political cunning-it demands embracing the very darkness he once fought against. Vlad must choose between his honor and his throne, between saving his children and securing his dynasty. Every decision carves another scar upon his soul, and every victory demands a piece of his humanity His choices will not only decide Wallachia's fate but forge the legend of the most feared name in history-and set his namesake son on a path to immortal infamy.

Discover the stunning conclusion of Vlad Dracul in Order of the Dragon - Book Two, the second in a series of novels and novellas about the real Dracula family, the House of Basarab.
