The Runaway King

335 pp. | Scholastic | March, 2013 | Trade ISBN 978-0-545-28415-8 $17.99
(2) 4-6 Ascendance series. Jaron has been king of Carthya for a month when an attempted assassination forces him into hiding, running away to the borders of his kingdom where he hopes to infiltrate the pirate camp and get to the bottom of things. This solid middle volume has its own arc, but still ends with a cliffhanger, an important villain on the loose, and a potential love triangle.
