Description

Some lies are best left buried...

Laoch and Sura are grizzled veterans of the Crusades, thrust into a violent new conflict when a strange enemy crashes into an alchemical experiment, setting off a wave of long-forgotten spiritfire that tears through the realm, spreading fear in its wake.

Seeking the truth behind the magic, a young queen is blocked at every turn by the shadowy machinations of Lord Penance, the Gods' Overseer. And while whispers echo in the Seven Houses of an ancient evil's return, Laoch and the dishonoured elven warrior Sura must face their desperate foe alone.

With the Royal Court paralysed by inaction, they are thrown into a world of soul-magic, Gods' weapons and ancient spirits where nothing is as it seems, and the world they thought they knew unravels to reveal a deadly, long-buried secret.

One even the Gods fear.

A dark fantasy layered with formidable soul-magic, riveting action and twists that turn a world on its head, A Dragon of the Veil is the first book in the Warriors of Spirit and Bone series.

Perfect for readers of Andy Peloquin's Darkblade assassin, the gritty malice of Abercrombie's First Law trilogy, and the dark intricacy of Michael Moorcock's Eternal Champion series.
