Rise of a Hero

(2) YA Farsala Trilogy series. The empire-building Hrum, who defeated the feudal kingdom of Farsala in Fall of a Kingdom, are now mopping up pockets of resistance. The three heroes from the first book join forces to defend the fortress city of Mazad. The military strategy and clever, Scarlet Pimpernel-style ruses of the resistance make for entertaining reading, as does the richly worked pseudo-historical setting.
