The Unworthy Son

San Sanych lived a long and difficult life—fate kept shifting him from a legal adviser to a refugee, then to a driver. The most serious test happened recently: his bus was involved in a terrible accident, and six passengers died. Perhaps he wasn’t to blame, but his old heart couldn’t withstand the strain.

Death? Not a chance! Reincarnation in a new world—where San Sanych received a thief-and-adventurer’s body, the rich inheritor of an aristocratic line, who was sentenced to a long prison term. And to make matters worse, the local ruler has a personal hatred for him… What to do? Settle in and make do, using earthly experience and a second youth!

One world, different authors—this is the cycle “Shards of an Empire.”
