Publisher Description

Magic with a price, your soul…

When long-forgotten magic returns to Brandshold, the fate of a people falls upon Laoch and Sura's shoulders and the Gods' weapons they bear ‒ a thousand years of faith and lies reconciled in a moment of hope and redemption.

For Laoch, the crusade never ended, yet the embittered Ranger finds hope in his bond with the dishonoured elven warrior, Sura. Together, they must face a new conflict when the magic of a soul tear sends a ripple of fear through the realm.

When a powerful new enemy crashes into a meister's alchemical experiment, whispers of an ancient evil's return echo through the royal court ‒ and in a world no longer hidden from magic, the secrets and lies of the Seven Gods' Houses begin to unravel.

As cracks form in the trust between faith and the crown, the last bastions against an ancient foe, Laoch and Sura are exposed to the true power of their enemy when an even larger threat rises from the forest depths. One even the Gods' weapons fear.

For cast in iron and spiritfire - here be dragons.

The Warriors of Spirit and Bone trilogy continues with A City of Ashes, and will be completed by A Queen in Blood to be released in May 2025.
