The Long Hunt (Mageworlds Book 5)

The fifth book in the Mageworlds series. More than twenty years after the Second Magewar ended, power struggles within Khesat's ruling family threaten both the Mageworlds and the Republic. Khesat, a wealthy world in the Central Worlds, becomes the center of a crisis that destabilizes the spaceways, reviving old alliances and buried rivalries. Jens Metadi-Jessan D'Rosselin, the only child of the Highest of Khesat's scapegrace brother, becomes the focus of competing interests. Warring factions, criminal guilds, and supranormal forces all seek to control him, knowing that controlling the heir means controlling Khesat and the galaxy itself. Unaware of the agendas surrounding him, Jens travels the galaxy with his cousin Faral in search of excitement and adventure. Their journey sets in motion events that will reshape the civilized galaxy. This title is sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
