The road north is long. The wolves are already moving.
In the aftermath of a desperate mission across the Adriatic, John Grant and the Ashborn Company find themselves far from the safety of Corfu, hunted through the broken hills of Albania with too few men, too little food, and too many lives depending on them.
Behind them, Ottoman steel closes the road. Ahead lie mountain passes, ruined fortresses, uncertain allies, and a land where every village has learned the price of choosing the wrong side. To survive, John must trust strangers, make bargains with those fighting their own brutal war, and decide how much mercy a commander can afford when every act of kindness slows the march.
But the Ashborn are not soldiers of fortune alone. They are the last embers of a fallen world, carrying Rome’s shadow into a land of blood-feuds, ambushes, and old oaths.
And on the Wolf Road, survival is never given. It is taken.
The Wolf Road is the fourth novel in Stuart Lindsay’s Shadows of Rome series — a gritty tale of mercenaries, loyalty, sacrifice, and war in the ashes of Constantinople.
Genre: Historical
