Illinois, Alton – January 22, 2025 – River Talence, a new author in the supernatural fantasy genre, is pleased to announce the publication of Madness and Kings, her debut book. In this gripping tale, Hephaestion, an enslaved youngster plunged into the complexity of royal life, must learn to walk the tightrope between obsession, hate, and love.

Madness and Kings asks readers to explore themes of resiliency, identity, and the fortitude required to rewrite fate in a vividly imagined kingdom with supernatural elements and historical undertones.

Hephaestion is introduced in the book as Kine. Hephaestion develops a relationship with the prince and becomes a respected kingdom member despite his situation. However, when war threatens the peace, their lives are irrevocably transformed. Hephaestion must confront a new world when their paths recross years later, one in which duty, love, and friendship clash in ways that put his devotion and resolve to the test.

According to Talence, “Madness and Kings isn’t just a fantasy; it’s a story about growth, sacrifice, and the bonds that tie us together — sometimes painfully.” For everybody who has ever felt like they don’t quite belong yet still try to find their place in the world, this is for you.
