A sword fight along a dying frontier, under a falling moon.
A sword fight along a dying frontier, under a falling moon.
Raiders burn Tarn’s caravan and carry his kin east. He follows them along the Ashen Road one link of the chain at a time: through raider camps, a drowned river town, a salt market, burning grassland, a forest of bone and a mountain pass, to the oldest ruin under the moon. Nine chapters, told by an old storyteller’s voice between the fights.
