Synopsis

A Última Vida de Sir David is set in Onyria, a fantasy world defined by illusions, magic and mortal danger. Since the disappearance of the king of Alamkar, the aging and experienced knight Sir David has taken on the responsibility of educating the young Prince Venrik, a duty he had hoped would let him settle into a quieter existence after a long life of adventure. Considering himself already in what he calls his seventh and final life, Sir David is nonetheless drawn back into Onyria's perilous and unpredictable world, forced to confront threats and mysteries he thought he had left behind. The novel follows his efforts to protect and prepare the prince for what lies ahead while navigating a realm where nothing is quite as it appears, blending traditional fantasy adventure with a more reflective, philosophical take on heroism and duty in the twilight of a long career.
