Gray Wolf (Rise of Legends)

"An unpredictable protagonist... an excellent center point for this series." — Self-Publishing Review

First they took his family. Then they gave him a sword.

Corin an Fol was fourteen when the pirates came to Finnehalle. By nightfall his father and brothers were dead and his sister sold into slavery across the sea. Over his family's graves, Corin made a promise: the men who did this would die by his hand. Every last one.

Five years later, the boy is gone. In his place stands a Wolf, a soldier in the most feared regiment in the Four Kingdoms, marked since boyhood by a sorceress he's never forgotten. Hunting the men he swore to kill through the burning southern deserts, Corin finds something he never expected. Brothers who would die for him. A woman as deadly as he is, who loves him anyway. A reason to live beyond revenge.

Then he learns the worst monsters don't sail under pirate flags. Some wear the same gray cloak he does.

Betrayed by his own swordmaster, ambushed beneath a storm of arrows, Corin loses his second family the way he lost his first. The traitor rides away, certain no one survived.

He should have made sure.

There's a new name on the list.

For readers who crave grimdark fantasy with visceral betrayals and unflinching brutality—Gray Wolf delivers a relentless tale of loss, brotherhood, and the savage price of vengeance.
