Infinity Blade: The Awakening by Brandon Sanderson
Siris has a duty. To go and kill the God King. His entire life has been heading toward that duty. The story starts after Siris does just that. Except no one ever expected he'd win. All of the other Deathless were going to want the blade that Siris walked away with. They'd want vengeance on the people who killed one of their own. So, rather than returning to his town a triumphant hero, Siris was, none too politely, told to leave.
The book is based upon a video game. I might just have to play the video game to find out what comes next. Or what comes before. Or both. That was my biggest problem with the story, it was too short. I always want more...
