About The Sun at Twilight by N.L. Holmes
In the twilight years of the Hittite Empire (1230s BC), Tudhaliya IV comes to the
throne as a usurper’s younger son, determined to rule according to the traditional
values of justice and clemency, despite the harder advice of his ambitious mother and
his questionably loyal older brothers. When his cousin Kurunta, with whom he was
raised as someone dearer than a brother, decides his own claim to the throne is
stronger than Tudhaliya’s, the latter must decide whether to apply the brutal pragmatism
of his advisors or risk appearing weak, and how to manage to leave his own son an
empire that is finally free from civil war. The cost will be the sacrifice of his deepest
friendship. Book Four in the Empire at Twilight series, but can be read alone. This book will be $0.99 from October 18-21, 2021.
