Cover Reveal: Relentless Blades by Russell Carroll
Blurb:
Cross the wrong men and meet their blades!
The vragoths, foul creatures with a sinister past, are driven by an insatiable desire to reclaim their malevolent dominion over Zarune. The key to achieving their goal lies in the recently discovered Scepter of Cymathu, the secret power of which endangers the world, and they are hell-bent on obtaining it. However, unlikely heroes threaten to derail their plans.
When duty calls, Valadian Knight Braunstone leads his squad to the frontier town of Exeter, hoping to expose the vragoths’ scheme. The ranger, Grimlock, longs for acceptance in a world that shuns his mixed-race parentage. Meanwhile, Vigilanton, a rogue plagued by a series of dreadful decisions and rebuked by his father, seeks to free himself from the clutches of a ruthless crime lord.
In a race against time, a motley band of comrades must overcome their differences and confront their inner demons if they are to thwart the vragoths. Together, they fight for vengeance and honor, but is it enough to defeat the vragoths and save Zarune?
