Code and Crown (Paperback)

Paperback. The Cold War is over. The Hot War has begun. Nia von Eisenwald spent the winter building a fortress. Now, she must build an empire. The usurper Cassian has seized the capital, murdered the Emperor, and branded Nia a traitor. But while he plays politics, Nia plays to win. At fifteen, she leads the Iron Legion south-not as a princess, but as a Commander. Her weapons are not just swords and shields, but logistics, supply chains, and code-based artillery. But the enemy has updated their tactics. Cassian hasn't been idle. He has unleashed a new, terrifying magic upon the world: the "Dark Code." Bio-mechanical horrors that defy the laws of nature, fueled by the souls of the innocent. To fight them, Nia must push her own magic to the breaking point, risking a system crash that could kill her. The cost of victory is rising. As the battles grow bloodier, Nia finds herself making choices that terrify her allies. She starves armies. She executes traitors. She deletes her own emotions to become the perfect machine of war. But as she hardens her heart, she risks losing the one person who keeps her human. In this war, there are no heroes. Only survivors. Code and Crown: The Civil War is the fifth volume in the best-selling Progression Fantasy epic. Experience the gritty reality of magical warfare, where strategy beats strength, and the hardest battles are fought within the mind. This item is printed on demand.
