Book description
This is a world dominated by The Wild.
Man lives in pockets of civilisation claimed from The Wild. Within
men's walls life is civilised, the peace punctuated by tournaments,
politicking, courtly love and canny business. Beyond those walls men are
prey - vulnerable to the exceptionally powerful and dangerous creatures
which populate the land, and even more vulnerable to those creatures schemes.
So when one of those creatures breaks out of The Wild and begins
preying on people in their homes, it takes a specialist to hunt it down
or drive it out . . . and even then, it's a long, difficult and
extremely dangerous job.
The Black Captain and his men are one such group of specialists.
They have no idea what they're about to face . . .
Forget George and the Dragon. Forget Sir Lancelot and tales of Knightly
exploits. This is dirty, bloody work. This is violent, visceral action.
This is a mercenary knight as you've never seen one before. Miles
Cameron is an author, a re-enactor, an outdoors expert and a weapons
specialist. He lives, works and writes in Toronto, where he lives with
his family. This is his debut fantasy novel.
