Marching on Ridgington is a large army of neighbouring Baron Grafton. With the Castle still under construction help is dearly needed not only to defend the town but the castle as well.

Great book. Zombies in medieval times! Good atmosphere throughout the book and just the right length with a satisfying ending. Sequel is set to come out next year and i am looking forward to it.
