Against his will, Jaron will be pulled back into a fight for the throne &#8212; and a battle to save his kingdom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Buy from your local bookstore when possible. &nbsp;Or you can order here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiebound.org\/book\/9781338551082\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Indiebound.org<\/a><br><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/1338551086\/ref=x_gr_w_bb_glide_sin?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=x_gr_w_bb_glide_sin-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=1338551086&amp;SubscriptionId=1MGPYB6YW3HWK55XCGG2\" target=\"_blank\">Amazon.com<\/a><br><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/the-captive-kingdom-jennifer-a-nielsen\/1135640917?ean=9781338551082\" target=\"_blank\">BarnesandNoble.com<\/a><br><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.chapters.indigo.ca\/en-ca\/books\/the-captive-kingdom-the-ascendance\/9781338551082-item.html\" target=\"_blank\">Indigo Chapters<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"The Captive Kingdom | Official Book Trailer \u2013 A 360\u00b0 View\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/z1eQ1qkhW9E?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Captive Kingdom Trailer &#8211; Watch it in 360 Degree View!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Winner of the 2021 Earphones Award (Audiobook narrated by Charlie McWade)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Book 4: The Captive Kingdom &nbsp;&#8211; &nbsp;Now Available!&nbsp;(Scholastic) In a peaceful Carthya, Jaron leads as the Ascendant King with Imogen beside him &#8212; but the peace he fought so long for is not destined to last.
