King Cervus, The Midwest Breed

King Cervus has lost nearly everything.

With his empire collapsing in Gary, Indiana, his money tied up, his people falling apart, and law enforcement closing in, King disappears into Louisville determined to rebuild from the ground up. New city. New identity. New crew. Same ambition.

But rebuilding an empire is harder than building one the first time.

While King establishes new territory, pushes his music operation forward, and searches for enough money to settle old debts, the organization he left behind begins unraveling. Men he trusted to lead discover that giving orders is easy. Holding power is something else entirely.

Money, women, loyalty, betrayal, music, drugs, paranoia, and survival collide as King learns a brutal lesson:

You can hand somebody your position, but you can’t hand them your mind.

King Cervus, The Midwest Breed: 2001–2008, Volume 2: Gold Edition follows a man forced from his throne who refuses to accept that his reign is over.

He isn’t starting over because he wants to.

He’s starting over because surviving is the only move left.
