Nightscape: The Iron Shadow (Paperback or Softback)

A Death-Duel Against Sorcery & Super-Science

Champion pit fighter Broga Arekele has spent the last five years on a danger-filled swordquest to find his enslaved half-sister Ovandu. Now, his quest has taken him to a remote chasm city in the desert wastes of Kanavar. Within minutes of his arrival, he’s forced to intervene in an attack by a giant, shapeshifting automaton and at once becomes embroiled in a generations-old feud. Not much of a welcome.

With the aid of his childhood companion, the Druna tek-mage Ranvir, Broga fights past warring clans, cutthroats and corrupt mages in hopes of seeing his swordquest to its conclusion. But another, even greater threat looms—the resurrection of an angry god. And arming himself against it means giving up what he cherishes most.

Includes a bonus novelette, “Helldriver Alley,” which recounts Broga’s heartrending clash with a sentient weapon from a forgotten age.
