Synopsis "Dreaded King: A Son Rises (in English)"
Yaspur the Hard, Grand High Pumba of the Rocks, has overthrown the world. He rules behind a puppet king who usurped the throne twelve long years ago, murdering the entire royal family. Or did he? Astor Meagan, the last surviving knight, knows Yaspur is looking for something. Could it be a bigger secret than anyone has ever guessed? A chance to right the kingdom and restore a world is handed to Astor Meagan and his knife-wielding daughter. But never in their wildest dreams could they have imagined a dirty, peace-spouting, vegetarian farmer would become the pivotal point in the vast game of politics and intrigue happening on their planet's surface. Translated by Arthur A. Simpson. Here follows his original description of this volume: There are some stories that are hard to explain, especially when they are told by several people. It is difficult to condense Charlie Biggton's changes in life (from a small-time dreadlocked farmer, to a homeless wander, and then...well, and then to a place he never wanted) into just a few words. It is even harder to explain Corinth Meagan's experiences, watching the weak vegetarian farmer becoming a Christian leader. I suppose the only one that is fairly easy to explain is Astor Meagan's business in the matter. As a practical missionary soldier, his job is keeping Corinth and Charlie alive and their eyes focused on God's goals as they find themselves racing for their lives across the world. Not our world, you understand, but the planet somewhere off in our wide universe where these texts were written. How they fell into my hands is, of course, another story.
