The Strength of the Few (Hierarchy Book 2)

The highly anticipated follow-up to The Will of the Many - one of 2023`s most lauded and bestselling fantasy novels.The Hierarchy still call me Vis Telimus. They still, as one, believe they know who I am. But with all that has happened - with what I fear is coming - I am not sure it matters anymore.I am no longer one. I won the Iudicium, and lost everything - and now, impossibly, the ancient device beyond the Labyrinth has replicated me across three separate worlds. A different version of myself in each of Obiteum, Luceum, and Res. Three different bodies, three different lives. I have to hide, fight, play politics. I have to train, trust, lie. I have to kill, heal, prove myself again, and again, and again.I am loved, and hated, and entirely alone.Above all, though, I need to find answers before it`s too late. To understand the nature of what has happened to me, and why.I need to find a way to stop the coming Cataclysm, because if all I have learned is true, I may be the only one who can.James Islington is the author of The Licanius Trilogy which has sold more than a million copies around the world.
