Description

From the multiple award-winning author Avery Christy, comes a new series set in the Mountain Lords universe, following the journeys of Thurgan Stonebrow.

The Empress has banned mercenary companies, putting Thurgan Stonebrow out of work after ten years of fighting other people's battles. Before he can fully consider his next move, Thurgan agrees to help a young Rodoan woman to reach her family. But there is nothing easy in this act of kindness, as the journey brings Thurgan and his growing band of companions into the middle of a fight for survival between nations.

Lady Pannek, the ruler of the land of Surigard, is besieged by hired raiders led by the savage Bruimar, and the armies of the Empire and its minions who seek to destroy her and her nation. Knowing of Thurgan's prowess on the battlefield, she names him general of the Red Legion in the desperate hope he can lead Surigard to victory against its enemies.

But how can one man with one little army win against the power of an empire on so many fronts? Even with the help of friends and allies, this may very well be the final battle for Thurgan, and the fall of Surigard!
