King's Legacy - Paperback

Adventure, queer history, plus a hint of magic await in this thrilling sequel to L. C. Rosen's Lion's Legacy, a queer take on Indiana Jones about reclaiming LGBTQIA+ history.

Tennessee Russo has faced bigger challenges than this. He's evaded traps, found lost treasures, become kind of famous, gotten over a bad relationship, and survived all that. Filming a new season of his artifact-hunting reality show for a major international streaming service should be easy, right? His archeologist dad even said Tennessee is in charge of what artifacts they go after. Plus, Ten's awesome best friend (and sometimes more), Gabe, gets to come along on the adventure.

But here's the thing: Tennessee wants to hunt down a long-lost gift that King David gave Jonathan. Queer history, especially of Biblical figures, isn't easy for some people to believe or accept. Tennessee has done his research, and he knows where the clues point. But what happens when the producer of the show threatens to misrepresent not just Ten's ideas, but his identity?

To tell the true story of his queer legacy, Tennessee will have to race through Rome and Paris, stand up to the actual Vatican, crack ancient puzzles, and, maybe hardest of all, reclaim the power of being his authentic self. Along the way, author L. C. Rosen delivers the excitement, romance, and magic of a wildly fun adventure.
