About the book
Alwyn is a thief and experienced brawler with few friends and an appetite for revenge. Few would call him handsome, and even his enemies will admit he knows how to survive. Unfortunately, Alwyn does have a knack for chasing near-death experiences. Alwyn's biggest fault is a near-fanatical following of charismatic leaders, especially those whose plans involve violence on a grand scale. Lady Evadine Courlain is one such leader, whose visions tell of a chaotic future. One that can only be avoided by destroying the False King's rebellion. Alwyn is caught in a war, in which he wants no part. Fate has other plans.
