Coming Soon

Wulfnoth returns! More experienced, more ambitious, and even more deadly…

Following their daring escape from Herakas, the former Galnir warrior, Wulfnoth, and his loyal companions decide they must split into two less conspicuous groups in order to evade capture and pursue different, but equally vital, goals. While one party will visit the libraries of Nemea and seek to unlock the power held within the gemstone carried by Wulfnoth, the other heads for the capital city, Taenarum, where Wulfnoth’s parents have been imprisoned for the past decade by the tyrant, Lysandros, and his evil sorcerer, Nicander.
As well as the enemy soldiers tracking Wulfnoth, Greybeard, Chrysanthe, and the other friends, an even more monstrous enemy is hot on their trail. Captain Kallias was always a brutal, sadistic warrior, but now, with senses and physical traits enhanced by dark magic, he is the ultimate hunter with one mission: to kill Wulfnoth and bring the young warrior’s head to King Lysandros.
All is not well within Lysandros’s Nemea however, as decades of unrest have led to violent opposition amongst the common folk who see their taxes rising every year while their children are cut down in droves, sacrificed to the merciless, grinding war machine. As Wulfnoth and his companions seek to fulfil their missions the backdrop of political unrest could prove useful, but with murderous enemies, shocking betrayals, misunderstood ancient technology, and savage monsters to contend with, their quests seem doomed to failure.
Readers of heroic fantasy authors such as David Gemmell, Miles Cameron, and John Gwynne are sure to love every page of this action-packed, gritty sequel to Singers of the Sword Song. Get your copy now!
