This medieval fantasy is reminiscent of Harry Potter and C.S Lewis and suitable for both young adult readers and general audiences. The Crown Conspiracy is book one of the multi-book saga: The Riyria Revelations. Book two is scheduled for a Spring/Summer 2009 release. The entire series is told through six novels conceived as a single epic tale. Across the entire chronicle, mysteries build, characters evolve, and plots thicken, but each is self-contained and can be read independent of each other. 

In this first episode, the reader is introduced to Royce Melborn, a skilled thief, and his mercenary partner, Hadrian Blackwater, who make a profitable living carrying out dangerous assignments for conspiring nobles until they become the unwitting scapegoats in the murder of the king. Sentenced to death, they have only one way out…and so begins this epic tale of treachery and adventure, sword fighting and magic, myth and legend. 

Michael's book is already gaining acclaim. On May 30, 2008 at BookExpo in Los Angeles it was recognized as a Click here.
