    About this ebook

    No longer a prince, Rollond is liberated from the inheritance of authority that he desperately loathed. Only, when he accepts a job at a lofty estate, he soon becomes the center of two gods battling for control of the fate of the world.

    When one god questions the futility of Rollond's life, she proposes that he instead work with her to establish a haven in which all who hate the god of Destiny may find refuge from the Destiny's tyranny.

    Though the choice sounds easy, Rollond is trapped. Either he accepts the burden of authority, this time with divine sanction; or he becomes the oracle of fate, a soulless puppet under the total control of the god of Destiny.

    Deciding instead to take matters into his own hands, Rollond sets out to regain control of his life — unaware that by doing so, he's pursuing the interests of both gods.

    Forged by the dichotomy of Freedom and Fate, The Kingdom of Ecstasy dives deep into the heart of an exotic world for a non-stop adventure bombarded with hatred, delusions, love, and ties that last beyond death.

    Author

    S. R. Laubrea

    S. R. Laubrea loves mixing Science Fiction with Fantasy. That's her niche; and if she had the choice to write something else, it would be Fantasy mixed with Science Fiction. Any author that combines staple genres knows that the possibilities between both can be endless, and they often are.She has a strong love of culture and often delves into the backgrounds, histories, colloquialisms, and behaviors of other peoples to glean ideas for the fictional races featured in her stories.Complexity is a fierce and compelling mechanism for Shiri as an author. If it's not convoluted enough, she won't write it; if it's not willing to explore any standing concepts, ideas, philosophies, or get sprinkled with a touch of myth, she will not do it. That's part of why she chose Scifi-Fantasy as her niche.She is elated to be an author on Smashwords.
