A kingdom teetering on the brink of destruction. A king gone missing. Who will survive? Find out in the highly anticipated sequel to Jennifer A. Nielsen's blockbuster THE FALSE PRINCE!


Just weeks after Jaron has taken the throne, an assassination attempt forces him into a deadly situation. Rumors of a coming war are winding their way between the castle walls, and Jaron feels the pressure quietly mounting within Carthya. Soon, it becomes clear that deserting the kingdom may be his only hope of saving it. But the further Jaron is forced to run from his identity, the more he wonders if it is possible to go too far. Will he ever be able to return home again? Or will he have to sacrifice his own life in order to save his kingdom?

The stunning second installment of The Ascendance Trilogy takes readers on a roller-coaster ride of treason and murder, thrills and peril, as they journey with the Runaway King!

Jennifer Nielsen's first book, THE FALSE PRINCE, debuted to huge accolades. It is a finalist in the Whitney Awards (Middle Grade category) and won first place in the Cybils competition (Science Fiction & Fantasy category). Nielsen is a force to be reckoned with in the children's fantasy book world. (Read my interview with Jennifer Nielsen HERE.) If you haven't read it yet, you should definitely put in on your TBR list.

  1. So excited for Jennifer. I was lucky to get an ARC and The Runaway King is fantastic. And I nominated The False Prince for the Cybils. Was thrilled when it won. Thanks for spotlighting this.
