About this ebook

The reign of the Alfur has ended. Talamh has been liberated. For once, humanity are the conquerors.

So why does Rydian Holt feel like they lost?

With the destruction of the Haze, Talamh has been revealed to the universe. But the realm beyond their world is not what Rydian and his fellows were told. The Alfur lied. It is not they who rule the galaxy, but humanity. Led by the autocratic Federation, their empire spans galaxies.

Returning to Talamh after six months training his powers, Rydian finds his former masters enslaved. Condemned to fight and die in the arena, few of the Alfur remain. Conquerors they might have been, but Rydian can’t help but wonder if this was the fate they deserved.

Afterall, some had helped him.

Some had saved him.

He can’t fight the Federation. Not alone. But there are still mysteries on his home world, powers that even the Federation fear.

Can Rydian Holt unlock the secret of their species’ shared past and finally bring peace between human and Alfur?

Or will his desperate gamble lead to the destruction of everyone and everything he has ever known?

He freed his world. He had no idea what that would unleash. Conquest is the breathtaking third instalment in Aaron Hodges' Alfurian Chronicles — where galactic empires, ancient secrets, and a reluctant hero who questions everything collide in the most explosive entry in the series yet.

Ratings and reviews

you could have ended that book many many ways but the way you chose to do it was probably the worst way possible - I thought you're writing was pretty good and would have kept reading your books; until I read the end of this book, so good luck in the future and I hope others like it better than I did

little short but a good read.

A fantasy, sci-fi thriller that leaves you wanting more with each chapter. when you think you have the story figured out, PLOT-TWIST! Aaron has out done himself on this series!
