The Black Guard

The city of Canarn is burning. Its people huddle in the shadow of the citadel, as the king’s armies sack this final stronghold between Ro Tiris and the northern thains of Fjorlan.

With their father’s blood fresh upon the headsman’s sword, the last scions of the house of Canarn, twin siblings Lord Bromvy and Lady Bronwyn, are labelled Black Guard, shunned and hunted throughout the lands of Ro.

In the court of King Sebastian Tiris, men fear to speak their minds, for bloody accidents befall those who dare to question the king’s new advisors. They call them the Seven Sisters: each one a sorceress of the Karesian fire god; every one as beautiful, and as dangerous, as a flame.

And called from the long ages of deep time, the children of a dead god are waking with a single ultimatum.

ALL THAT WAS DEAD WILL RISE.
ALL THAT LIVES WILL FALL…
