The Prince of Lies: He Stole a Prince's Identity. Now, He Must Steal His Magic. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798307342961)

In a kingdom where magic flows through royal blood, the greatest illusion isn't power-it's identity.

Riven Vale is the finest con artist in Ardath, a master of deception who can steal anything... except magic. But when he's recruited to impersonate the missing Prince Kassian, he finds himself caught in a web of court intrigue where every smile masks a betrayal and every shadow conceals a secret.

As Riven weaves his greatest con, something unexpected happens: real magic begins to stir within him. Each spell he pretends to cast manifests with devastating power, each illusion becomes more real than the last. Is he merely channeling the missing prince's magic, or has he stumbled upon a power that could either save the kingdom or destroy it?

With enemies gathering at the borders and whispers of prophecy echoing through the palace halls, Riven must navigate a dangerous game of masks and magic. Princess Aveline, his intended bride, sees through his deceptions to the man beneath. The court mage, Zara, watches him with suspicious eyes, sensing the impossible in his growing powers. And somewhere in the shadows, the real Prince Kassian's fate may hold the key to everything.

"The Prince of Lies" is a spellbinding tale of identity, power, and the price of deception. In a court where truth is the rarest magic of all, can a false prince become a true hero?

Perfect for fans of "The Name of the Wind" by Patrick Rothfuss and "Six of Crows" by Leigh Bardugo, this gripping fantasy novel weaves together court intrigue, forbidden magic, and the power of self-discovery.
