Synopsis
Volume 2 of The Untamed series. Hareth and Niobe, a dead man and a would-be savior, travel to the port city of Asarra Bay, a haven for thieves and killers, two of whom may know the whereabouts of Hareth s family. They just so happen to be the ruthless leaders of rival assassins guilds, and neither has much love lost for Hareth. It soon becomes clear that both have their own plans for the young child of light. Meanwhile, a child of shadow waits jealously for revenge, and Essessa, the right hand of The Untamed, is impatient to collect the devil s due.

About the Author
Sebastian A. Jones is the Founder and President of Stranger Comics and is the creator of the world of Asunda. Asunda has been a labor of love for Jones for over three decades. Growing up as a mixed kid in England, Jones developed the inclusive fantasy world through tabletop gaming and live action role-playing. Years later, having relocated to the US, he started the comic world of Asunda where the character Niobe Ayutami rests firmly at the center. His first Asunda release, The Untamed: A Sinner's Prayer, was acclaimed by Bleeding Cool who called Jones "the Robert E. Howard of our generation" and master storyteller Clive Barker who dubbed it "an epic tale, conceived and crafted not only with a great love of comics, but also a profound understanding of the power of visionary storytelling." Jones has published 6 collected Asunda volumes and has 6 more currently in production. Jones has also written and published 4 children's books including the popular I Am Mixed.
