Genre: Dark Epic Fantasy Action Adventure
The final book of Assassins of Landria series is here!
An epic fantasy
buddy flick/bromance with a dark edge as well as humor, the Assassins
of Landria series veers into horror, action, family, angst, comedy,
and the occult. Think Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid recast as
medieval assassins.
Ridge and Rett go into hiding with the
kidnapped heir, evading the warlock hitmen and using Rett’s magic
to stay one step ahead of the people trying to kill them.
The
resistance movement against the Witch King has suffered heavy losses
and seems to be on the brink of defeat. Ridge and Rett manage to
score some victories, restoring the resistance’s faith in their
ability to succeed. Ridge and Rett hide the heir at Rune Keep and
lead an insurgence
against the traditional armies of the Witch
Lord’s loyalists, inflicting heavy losses. The heir is nearly taken
from him through treachery in Rune Keep, and he’s still not fully
onboard until Ridge and Rett rescue him and he sees first-hand what
the Witch King’s followers are doing.
The task is
simple: Kill the Witch Lord, defeat his loyalists, put the bastard
son on the throne, reclaim their honor.

Buddy flick epic fantasy! The second in the Assassins of Landria series from the award-winning, bestselling author of Scourge: A Novel of Darkhurst and The Chronicles Of The Necromancer books!
Wandering mystic Yefim Makary, known to his followers as the ‘Witch Lord’, disappeared before he could be accused of inciting dissent against King Kristoph. His supporters among the disenchanted aristocrats who weren’t arrested have fled or died by their own hand. The king is happy to put the matter behind him. Yet Burke, the commander of the elite King’s Shadows, doesn’t believe the threat is over, and he assigns his two most troublesome, rule-breaking—and successful—assassins to ferret out the real threat and put a stop to Makary’s plots.
Joel “Ridge” Breckinridge and Garrett “Rett” Kennard rose through the ranks of the Landrian army together, from teenaged conscripts to seasoned fighters. Together, they became the most feared team of assassins in Landria, surviving longer that most in their profession by virtue of excellent fighting skills, legendary bravado, peerless strategy, and an uncanny synchronicity.
As the threads of a new plot come together revealing disloyalty among the priests and generals, Ridge and Rett once again find themselves on the run, hoping they and their allies can figure out the Witch Lord’s latest scheme before it costs them their lives—and the king his throne.
