The Sleeping King is the start of a new fantasy series by New York Times and USA Today bestselling author, Cindy Dees.
Dees has won a Golden Heart Award, two RITAs for Category Suspense and
Adventure and has also twice snared RT's Series Romantic Suspense of the Year. She is a great storyteller, and the adventures in her more than
fifty novels are often inspired by her own life. Dees is an Air Force
vet — the youngest female pilot in Air Force history — and fought in the
first Gulf War. She's had amazing adventures, and she's used her
experiences to tell some kickass stories.
But as much as she love
romances, Cindy's other passion has been fantasy gaming. For almost
twenty years she's been involved with Dragon Crest, one of the original
live action role-playing games. She's the story content creator on the
game, and wanted to do an epic fantasy based on it, with the blessing
and input of Dragon Crest founder Bill Flippin.
The Sleeping King is the first in an epic fantasy series, featuring the best of the
genre: near immortal imperial overlords, a prophecy of a sleeping elven
king who’s said to be the savior of the races... and two young people who are set on a path to save the day.
