The Second Kingdom Robert Stout

The Second Kingdom is like nowhere you've imagined and nothing you've read. Women rule this world and have for 3,000 years. Mages hold sway over the throne. Men connive to take power. War looms on the horizon. In an inn on the road to the capitol, a male mage is born to a fisherman and his young wife, Gwyn. Prophesied to be a powerful mage, he is placed with a notorious witch Keara for training. But Keara is not alone. She has powerful enemies who would use the child and destroy her in the process. A tale full of twists and turns, the Second Kingdom goes through civil war, revolution, love, jealousy, madness and death.
