The Exiled Heir by Jonathan French
Airlann. The Source Isle of Magic. It is the Age of Autumn, the island locked in slow, beautiful death. Nine hundred years have passed since Jerrod I, last of the Goblin Kings, was assassinated by a child. After centuries of tyranny, the bloody days of human rule still haunt the long memories of the Fae. Their resplendent bastions have dwindled despite the peace, all but replaced by the superstitious squalor of mortal Man. The human peasantry cowers in remote villages, defending themselves with weapons of iron. The Red Caps, a fanatical army of goblins, have marshaled once more, intent on returning Jerrod's tyrannical bloodline to power. Padric, a human farmhand and friend to the Fae, finds himself in the midst of the growing war. Rosheen, an alluring piskie and Padric's lifelong friend, struggles to help him survive. They ally themselves with Deglan Loamtoes, a bigoted gnome herbalist, and Pocket, a changeling orphan fostered by the avian Knights of the Valiant Spur. Beset from all sides by vengeful skin-changers, bloodthirsty marauders and fire-crazed fanatics, these four wayfarers must discover the true identity of Jerrod's long lost progeny before the goblins reawaken the genocidal soldiers of living iron known as the Forge Born. Can they lay aside their individual prejudices, reveal their long-held secrets, and work with those they distrust to prevent Airlann's annihilation? Can they stand together to find and destroy the last scion of the Goblin Kings?Jonathan, who was born in Tennessee, began reading comic books at a young age. (His first issue was Conan the Barbarian Annual #11) After his family moved to the United Kingdom, his passion of fantasy, folklore, and bygone days grew even stronger. Jonathan was crawling over castle ramparts, visiting old churchyards, and gazing at towering cathedrals when he was nine years old. He returned to the United States. Before receiving his degree from Brevard College in the intriguing wilds of Western North Carolina, he survived Catholic school and a rebellious year in New York City (where he unintentionally met his future wife).
Jonathan relocated to Chicago after creating the universe of Autumn's Fall and began writing seriously. Robert E. Howard, Robert E. Howard, Robert E. Howard, Robert E. Howard, Robert E. Howard and Lloyd Alexander are two brothers. He and his wife, son, and two cats currently reside in Atlanta.
