Singers of the Sword Song
(2026)(The first book in the Sword Song Chronicles series)
A novel by Steven A McKay
The start of a brand-new heroic fantasy series by the author of The Druid and The Heathen Horde!
When a desperate young soldier is pushed to breaking point, a series of shocking events will be set in motion that could change the world forever.
For thirty years war has raged across West Valkyros yet still there is no end in sight to the decades of death and destruction. In the aftermath of yet another bloody battle Wulfnoth, forced to serve in the elite Galnir infantry regiment since he was a child, attacks his own sergeant and deserts. Fleeing to the north, the frightened youth is joined on his travels by an experienced forester, and a beautiful singer they meet in a tavern after a brawl. Together the companions journey through the villages, towns, and great cities of Nemea sharing adventures, their bonds of loyalty and love growing as Wulfnoth struggles to navigate life outside the army and find his place in a world of mythical monsters, murderous criminals, magical artefacts, and seemingly endless new experiences.
Unbeknown to the friends, however, two deadly hunters are tracking their every move, intent on bringing the deserter to justice for his crimes. Just as Wulfnoth is discovering that playing music can be as rewarding as wielding a sword in battle, a shocking revelation will give his life a new purpose and intertwine his fate with that of the very people who seek to kill him.
Singers of the Sword Song is the first ever fantasy novel by bestselling author Steven A. McKay and will surely be devoured by fans of David Gemmell, Trudi Canavan, Raymond E. Feist, and Patrick Rothfuss.
