The Runaway King

 

        The Runaway King is the 2nd book of The Ascendance Series by Jennifer A. Nielsen.               I enjoyed this series so much. It's full of action, adventure, excitement and so much more.    Jennifer A. Nielsen is one of favorite authors. She has so many great books. 

Here is the summery

Just weeks after Jaron has taken the throne, an assassination attempt forces him into a deadly situation. Rumors of a coming war are winding their way between the castle walls, and Jaron feels the pressure quietly mounting within Carthya. Soon, it becomes clear that deserting the kingdom may be his only hope of saving it. But the further Jaron is forced to run from his identity, the more he wonders if it is possible to go too far. Will he ever be able to return home again? Or will he have to sacrifice his own life in order to save his kingdom?The stunning second installment of The Ascendance Series takes readers on a roller coaster ride of treason and murder, thrills and peril, as they journey with the Runaway King.
