Marriage and War

The Company of Slayers has escaped slavery and scheming enemies, gaining wealth and status in the process. Now real power beckons as one of their number, the warrior Balinor, is to marry Ascrina Strabo, next in line to the throne of Kangorn, just as her grandfather, the current prince, is ailing and treacherous forces are plotting to seize the Rock for themselves.

Yet there is no time to celebrate, for war has come to the West. Temple Knights lead an army of the faithful to besiege the fortress city of Las Ma. For the Slayers, in the tumult of conflict, there are deals to be done and money to be made.

But war is unpredictable. Enemies, both obvious and unforeseen, prepare to destroy the upstart Slayers. Noble houses, merchant companies and imperial agents all know one thing. Kangorn has never seen an uncontested succession.

As plot clashes with conspiracy, old loyalties will be stretched to breaking point ­– and maybe the Company itself will not survive this test.
