About the book

Legacy of Steel continues the story of the Tressian Republic and its struggle against the Hadari Empire. Following the battle at Lumestra, the narrative follows Viktor Akadra as he grapples with his role as a champion of the gods, while Josiri Trelan attempts to govern a fractured nation facing internal betrayal. The plot revolves around the return of the ancient, god-like entities known as the Astra and the escalating magical cost of maintaining an empire. Specific focus is placed on the political maneuvering between the ruling Council and the military, alongside the emergence of dark sorcery that threatens to consume both sides of the war.

This book serves readers of epic high fantasy who prioritize complex geopolitical landscapes and intricate magic systems. It attracts those interested in the logistical consequences of war and the moral ambiguity of leadership. Readers gain a detailed understanding of a world where divine intervention is tangible yet destructive. By the end, the audience walks away with a clear picture of how individual choices influence the collapse of empires and the survival of civilians amidst supernatural conflict.
