A witch, a monk and a renegade band of warriors must unite to stop the long-hidden magi from subjugating the kingdom. Prepare yourself for war.
'Galmer saw the creature bound into the woods behind the mule, screeching as it went, and soon he could hear Bessy screaming in the dark. Never before had he heard an animal scream like that. The cries of terror and agony ended quickly, to be replaced by a wet and brutal sound; the hunter was feeding.'
A witch, a monk and a band of renegade warriors called the Iron Wolves seek to overthrow their false queen. Queen Winspear is a witch and leader of the magi, a long-hidden order of malign magicians plotting to subjugate the kingdom, with the help of monstrous demons from the twisted realm of Vorridion.
The outlawed protagonists are thrust into a war, in which the only way to clear their names and avoid execution is to unveil the true nature of their queen. All the while, the heroes must struggle to survive in a wild and dangerous world that seems dead set against them.
The novel is the first in a trilogy, set in a world inspired by the history, folklore and culture of Medieval Europe.
Brace yourself for horror. Prepare yourself for war.
