Immerse yourself in the captivating world of Midkemia with Raymond E. Feist's thrilling novel, A Kingdom Besieged, the first instalment of the climactic final trilogy. This masterpiece by Feist weaves an intricate tale of intrigue, treachery, and impending doom, where ancient prophecies unfold and the fate of the world hangs in the balance.

The Kingdom of the Isles is enveloped in a shroud of rumour and instability. Amidst the growing turmoil, Kingdom spies stationed in Kesh have begun vanishing without a trace, either falling prey to unknown dangers or being swayed to the enemy’s cause. As trustworthy intelligence becomes a rare commodity, one terrifying reality becomes undeniable: dark forces are mobilising.

Following the hard-won peace enforced by Pug and the Conclave of Shadows after the last Keshian invasion, the Empire has remained dormant. But now Jim Dasher, an astute and cunning operative, uncovers the troubling truth of vast armies amassing within the Keshian Confederacy, signalling an imminent threat.

Amidst this rising tide of tension, Martin conDoin finds himself thrust into a role fraught with peril at Crydee Keep. As he prepares to confront the vanguard of an invading force, Martin can't help but draw comparisons to his illustrious ancestor, Prince Arutha, who valiantly defended his home against the Tsurani invasion. Unlike Arutha, however, Martin must rally a defence with scant resources, relying on the courage of old men and untested boys.

The stakes could not be higher as colossal events loom on the horizon, threatening the very survival of human life in Midkemia. With unwavering bravery and the wisdom of the ages, Pug and his trusted allies must face an encroaching darkness that could reshape the world forever.

Join Pug, the original Black Magician, and a diverse assembly of heroes as they navigate a perilous journey filled with magic, war, and alliances forged in the crucible of conflict. A Kingdom Besieged sets the stage for an epic conclusion, brimming with suspense and the promise of an enthralling adventure.
