Treacherous Brethren

Roland of the High Crags #2

by B.R. Stateham

The war between dragon and man rages on.

Roland swore to protect and raise the small dragon princess as his own. Feared by humanity and dragonkind alike, the warrior monk is a renowned swordsman, and his skill in Netherworld Magic is legendary.

However, it is the child who fuels the fear burning in the hearts of both dragon and man. For the child is more than a child: she is a weapon, designed by the dark gods to unite all dragonkind under one banner and wage the final war against humanity, wiping them out forever.

Roland has made an allegiance with the dragon child, threatening both dragon and man. Their enemies want them found and destroyed before it's too late. Soon, the warrior monk's resolve and strength will be put to the ultimate test.

About the author

I am a soon to be a seventy five year old writer of genre fiction. And yes, my portrait was used in 1931 for the original design of Boris Karloff's Frankenstein (well, maybe I'm stretching the truth just an itsy-bitsy bit).

I write hardboiled/noir. And fantasy. And someday . . . someday I plan to make a buck two ninety-five doing it. But I'm not holding my breath.
