Raised in New York, Sean suddenly discovers his parents aren't his parents after all, and that he is the rightful heir to a kingdom 'not on this earth'.
Prince in Hiding is the first book of the Making of a Mage-King trilogy. In this book, Sean must learn how to manipulate the magic born into his family, and he must do so before his uncle discovers he has returned.
