There’s no ancient evil to defeat, no orphan destined for greatness, just two guys in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Royce Melborn, a skilled thief, and his mercenary partner, Hadrian Blackwater make a profitable living carrying out dangerous assignments for conspiring nobles until they become the unwitting scapegoats in a plot to murder the king. Sentenced to death, they have only one way out…and so begins this epic tale of treachery
and adventure, sword fighting and magic, myth and legend.
