Nicholas A. Rose is the Author of the Ilvenworld Fantasy Series

Nicholas A. Rose has been an avid reader for most of his life and a writer for almost as long. He is the author of the ilvenworld novels and novellas.

He enjoys anything to do with the sea, the outdoors and mountains, all of which he finds inspirational, and the rather more sedentary pastimes of chess, photography, real ale, reading and, of course, writing.

His books.

Markan Throne 

Two rival claimants to the empty Markan Throne meet in battle. When Marcus Vintner defeats his cousin Branad, it seems the matter is settled. But Marcus is implicated in a murder and his claim to the throne is suspended.

Zenepha, an intelligent and literate sylph, is plunged into the depths of Markan politics when he is thrust, unwillingly, onto the throne.

Hingast, a third claimant, is also traveling to Marka, determined to press his claim and prepared to use force to get his way.

Marcus must prove his innocence before it is too late and the throne again falls into abeyance.

Markan Empire

New enemies plot, old enemies wait, and only a sylph stands in their way.

Cleared of all wrongdoing, Marcus Vintner is eager to press his claim to the Markan Throne.  But he must first convince the Senate that it is time to replace the sylph-emperor.  Zenepha has however proved himself an excellent monarch and the Senate is reluctant to push him aside.

Hingast's army still waits in the west, plotting a fresh assault, and a new threat has risen in the east.  Nobody in Marka is certain of Re Taura's plans, so Neptarik and Balnus are sent to learn what they can, where spies have an unfortunate habit of getting killed.  They must learn Re Taura's intentions quickly, because Marka cannot fight a war on two fronts...

Markan Empire is the sequel to Markan Throne.
