Description

When a mercenary and his company are charged with putting down a local rebellion, the consequences will be larger than they ever imagined in this action-packed sequel to The Red Knight.

Loyalty costs money. Betrayal, on the other hand, is free.

When the Emperor is taken hostage, the Red Knight and his men find their services in high demand -- and themselves surrounded by enemies. The country is in revolt, the capital city is besieged and any victory will be hard won. But the Red Knight has a plan.

The question is, can he negotiate the political, magical, real and romantic battlefields at the same time -- especially when he intends to be victorious on them all?

If you're a fan of Mark Lawrence, John Gwynne, or Brian McClellan you won't want to miss out on the second book of this intricate, epic fantasy.

    The second book is even better than the first. It took me a bit to get going with the expanded scope, but it does really take off. Then lots of action and story movement. I love that this writer doesn't frustrate you with stupid characters. They act and think realistically within the story and within their understanding of events. Words do have meaning in the story and often important events happen quickly. One other thing, in the first book I wasn't as into some of the secondary characters, but they really get interesting here. The wild really comes across as wild and parts feel like a real explorers adventure. Anyway, highly recommend if you're thinking of starting the first book or continuing the series.
