Bring forth a young blacksmith living in the most fortified capital of the world. Then add in a powerful person pent on destruction. Look into the life of Sam as her whole life is thrown upside down. With nothing more than a box of equipment, a fabled sword, and enough secrets to choke a horse, she sets off on a journey to stop the man who kills hundreds in a day. Then look into the mind of Isaac, a rogue from the boonies traveling with friends. Hard, cold, brooding, and quick to punch, not many people could ever hope to get within an arms length of him. Too bad for him, because some people go beyond the confines of intelligence in favour of hard-headed stubbornness. Disclaimer: this is not a kids' book. There will be cursing, fighting, gore, death, mentions of rape, sexual trauma, and mature content. If things like this bother you, please do not read.
