Some gods deserve their chains.
Brann spent fourteen years drowning the man he used to be: what the gods demanded of him, what the temple required, what his bond was built on. He was done with all of it.
Then a name he buried came back to find him.
And something older than the gods began to speak.
Now a washed-up former Warden must decide what he owes a world he walked away from, before the thing the gods fear most learns to say his name.
A fast, brutal grimdark fantasy about broken faith, blood magic, and a man who only wanted to be left alone.
For readers of Richard Swan, Joe Abercrombie, and Berserk.
