Excerpt from The Last Try
But I anticipate. The buoyancy of youth is mine no longer; I grow reminiscent and reflective with age, and sometimes I am apt to narrate the end before the beginning - which is a bit awk ward and confusing. But if the tale is to be told, it is for me to tell it, though I shall do it but poorly, I know.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book narrates the return of the Duke of Lotzen, five years after the events that saw Armand Dalberg replace him in the line of succession to the Valerian throne. The author, who it should be noted was a confidant of the King, provides a unique perspective on the events that followed. Alarmed at the Duke's reappearance and his obvious hostility, the author endeavors to persuade the King of the escalating danger. However, the King, consumed by his desire to experience life as a commoner, remains unconvinced. The book delves into themes of power, privilege, responsibility, and the destructive potential of grudges. It is not only an exciting tale of intrigue and adventure, but also a thought-provoking examination of the moral choices facing those in power and the potential consequences of unchecked ambition.
