The Black Guard - First Chronicle of the Long War

Epic fantasy, dark magic, political intrigue, ancient gods.

Dive in for a chilling adventure that respects the complexities of a rich fantasy world.

Description

The city of Ro Canarn burns. With their father’s blood fresh upon the headsman’s sword, Lord Bromvy and Lady Bronwyn, the last scions of the house of Canarn, face fugitive exile or death. In the court of Ro Tiris, men fear to speak their minds. The Army of the Red marches upon the North. Strange accidents befall those who dare question the King’s new advisors. Those foolish enough to speak their names call them the Seven Sisters: witches of the fire god; each as beautiful and as dangerous as a flame. And, called from the long ages of deep time by war and sacrifice, the children of a dead god are waking with a pitiless cry—All that was dead will rise. All that now lives will fall…
