About
She’s and archmage trapped in a corpses body. He’s a butcher who’s already dead.
Do you like Dark Fantasy? Grimdark? The undead and fights with gods? Then this book is for you!
In the twenty-fifth World of Espa novel, Varilla, an Archmagus, former Captain of the Freebooters, mother of three, and widow in all but name, awakens in a corpse that is not her own. Bound by the will of a god she despises, she is torn from her family and thrust into servitude for a wicked purpose she neither understands nor wants.
With her stands Cyrus the Crimson Rose, once Janus the Usurper’s most feared enforcer—a man so steeped in blood that even death did not hold him. Now, he is something else, flesh barely clinging to his bones, carrying the weight of sins that can never be undone.
The Witch and the Butcher, two lost souls, bound together by fate and divine cruelty. Their charge? To protect a mortal fated to ascend to godhood. Some gods would see him rise. The Lord of Murder would see him dead.
A path of trials.
A path of reckoning.
A path that may lead to redemption… or ruin.
Because the gods do not play fair.
And the cost of failure is far worse than death.
