Download Of Limited Loyalty: The Second Book of the Crown Colonies AudioBook Free
In the three years since defeating the Tharyngians at Anvil Lake, The Crown Colonies of Mystria have prospered. Colonists, whether trying to find new land or the Promised Land of prophecy, have pushed beyond the bounds of charters granted by the Queen of Norisle. A few of these new communities have even had the temerity to share with the Crown these are no longer at the mercy of its authorities. To survey the full extent of the western expansion, the Crown has sent Colonel Ian Rathfield to join Nathaniel Woods, Owen Strake, and Kamiskwa on an expedition in to the Mystrian interior. They locate a land packed with isolated and unique communities, each shaped in accord with the ideals of the founders. Conflicts abound included in this, and old enemies arrive at the least useful moments. Even worse, lurking out there's a menace which the Twilight People only know from folklore as the Antedeluvians; and westward penetration stumbles to their lands and awakens them. Alerted to the threat by his men, Prince Vlad petitions the Crown to send troops and supplies to destroy this new and terrifying enemy. The Crown refuses, citing massive debts from the last war. They dismiss Vlad's claims as fantasy, and impose some taxes on Mystrian trade to finance their own recovery. Faced with fighting an inhuman foe in a land seething with resentment contrary to the Crown, Vlad must unite the Colonies in a standard cause, or preside over their complete destruction.
