Our story starts in a Kingdom at the end of a bloody civil war. We are introduced to our main protagonist (Elliott) who is a nobody from a small village; but his Master and father-figure is at the end of his days when the Kingdom suffers its latest loss in the war. Elliott is sent by his Master to the Queen to convince her of a radical plan to defeat the enemy and maybe survive the war.
This book has the common tropes of lost warrior, found family, good versus evil but used in a way that keeps the reader interested and guessing from beginning to end. If you like epic type fantasy with these tropes, then The Return of the Knights may be the book for you.
