Exile
by Tom Stacey
Book Description:
On the fringes of the Verian Empire, two
small boys stumble upon a strange altar, buried in the heart of a mountain.
There they awaken a horror unseen for generations, that will descend upon the
realm of men while it is at its weakest. For Veria is a nation at war with
itself, only recently recovered from a bloody rebellion, and the time of heroes
has passed. The empire is in a state of chaos, and while its ruler, the Empron
Illis, rids the land of his remaining enemies, unseen forces are gathering at
the borders. However all eyes are turned inwards. The Empron is not a well man,
and there are whispers among the common folk that his advisors are spies;
demons that only wear the flesh of men.
Yet there is hope...
In the distant mountains, a forester who
has buried his past learns that he has not been forgotten, and that his crimes
have sought him out at last. But he is no simple woodsman. He is Beccorban the
Helhammer, Scourge, Burner and the Death of Nations, and his fury is a terrible
thing.
For when all the heroes are gone, Veria
will turn to those it has forgotten, before all is lost.
