THEY KILLED THE KING. THEY PINNED IT ON TWO MEN. THEY CHOSE POORLY.
There's no ancient evil to defeat or orphan destined for greatness, just two rogues in the wrong place at the wrong time. Royce Melborn, a skilled thief, and his ex-mercenary partner, Hadrian Blackwater are running for their lives after they're framed for the murder of the king. Trapped in a conspiracy that goes beyond the overthrow of a tiny kingdom, their only hope is unraveling an ancient mystery before it's too late.

“Filled with adventure and clever dialog and featuring a pair of not-quite-heroes whose loyalties to each other provide them with their greatest strength, this epic fantasy showcases the arrival of a master storyteller.” — Library Journal

“Hair-raising escapes, flashy sword fights, and faithful friendship complete the formula for good old-fashioned escapist fun.” — Publisher’s Weekly

Struggling out of the surf onto an Ynyover beach, two warriors find their world has changed. A simple mission from their overlord, King Pendha of Esterblud, has turned into an epic and perilous trek through the lands of the Sacred Overlord and his allies. The gods of Kamin seem aligned against them and their most ferocious enemies are close enough to destroy them.

So starts a grand adventure, led Urith, the Esterblud guardian of the Clovel Sword.  With his nephew, Oslaf, the two warriors find allies in a demigod called Mivraa and a beautiful young girl named Fedelm.  Crossing into hostile lands, they must battle mortal enemies who will stop at nothing to destroy them while learning who they can trust among humans and gods. Yet, the visions of the prophets are not set and humans have as much to fear as the immortal gods about the future. Shifting alliances and treacherous allies bring the boundaries of the three dominions in peril as all seek to find the Shield of Skool. [close]
