#1 - King's Maker, Volume 1

A rebellious prince, once thought dead. A noble’s son, held captive by a deviant king. A bold plot that could change the fate of a kingdom.

When Wolfgang is forced to move into the royal palace and take up his rightful seat as the fourth prince of Goldenleonard, he catches the eye of Soohyuk Shin, the son of the minister of foreign affairs. Soohyuk, forced to serve as one of the king’s beloved “sovereign darlings,” is looking for someone to play the leading role in a daring scheme. So far, all the other princes have disappointed Soohyuk, but Wolfgang is different – and he might just be the key to overthrowing the king.

#2 - King's Maker, Volume 2

An ascending prince, or an obedient pawn? The second volume of the hit BL manhwa by Haga and Kang Jiyoung

With the help of Soohyuk Shin, Wolfgang has managed to pass his first test as fourth prince. Resolving the tax dispute with the Duchy of Ulysses has won him potential allies, but a new challenge soon arises. The fifth prince is returning to the palace, and the event will mark Wolfgang’s official debut to the court – and his brothers. He’ll need to rein in his temper and hide his growing feelings for Soohyuk or risk arousing the king’s suspicions. Because it’s not just the throne Wolfgang is reaching for, it’s Soohyuk too – and Soohyuk belongs to the king.

Volume 2 includes episodes 13–25 of the webcomic King’s Maker.
