The Making of a Tyrant
as O.A. SamuelA political-thriller trilogy set inside a fantasy republic — where institutions fall not to armies but to patience, procedure and the people who understand the machinery better than the machinery understands itself.

The Making of a Tyrant · Book One
When Chancellor Elsabeth Preest dies without warning, the Federal Republic of Darahgon faces its most dangerous moment in a generation. With the Deputy Chancellor unreachable, executive authority falls to Desria Bothram, Administrator General — the quiet, indispensable woman who has kept the Republic running for twenty years.
As a new Chancellor stumbles into office, an assassination investigation stalls and a monarchist network begins dismantling the Republic's foundations through careful, democratic legislation. Desria manages every thread with the precision of someone who has spent a life doing exactly that. She knows more than she is telling. A novel about how republics fall — and, quietly, a heist.
