Johann von Hohenfeld was a man of the modern world, brilliant, ambitious, and obsessed with history. But his life ended in a flash of metal and fire, a car accident that sent him plunging into darkness.
Only, death was not the end.
He awakens in the Swiss Alps, 11th century, as the sixteen-year-old son of a struggling noble house. The Holy Roman Empire looms over the land, and war is never far away. Armed with his knowledge of the future—and a ruthless determination—Johann refuses to accept his fate as a forgotten second son.
He will not serve. He will not kneel.
He will carve out his own kingdom, no matter how much blood must be spilled.
