Description
What would you do to avenge your father’s murder?
When a mad monk claims that Hanzus’s father was poisoned, the young noble doesn’t hesitate—he rides to the monastery, only to arrive too late. With his father dying and the assassin vanished, Hanzus learns that the killer has fled across the sea to a mysterious inn known only as the Black Rook.
With vengeance burning in his veins, Hanzus sails south, determined to find the one responsible and cement his name as the Baron Without Sorrow. But the path to revenge is never straight. Accompanied by Barrett, a drunken would-be adventurer with a hunger for danger (and women), and Mavrian Morr, a Bloodkin outcast with a painful past, Hanzus is forced to confront more than just a killer—he must face the truth about his lineage, his legacy, and the madness seeping into the world around him.
Fast-paced, darkly humorous, and full of grim revelations, The Black Rook is the first in a gritty fantasy series that explores the cost of revenge, the weight of blood ties, and the thin line between justice and obsession.
Perfect for fans of The Witcher, David Gemmell, or Joe Abercrombie, this tale blends action, character, and grim moral choices in a world where taverns hide assassins—and truth is deadlier than steel.
