Sturm Strike

by Gilbert M. Stack

Earl Marshal Sturm just crushed the invasion of Kriegsturm by Ahl-Alnaar, but unless he can teach the southerners a hard lesson, the Sturm Front knows that his saber-rattling neighbors will return. With this in mind, Sturm has gathered a force roughly half the size of the army he just defeated to venture down the Spice Road toward the legendary city of Madinat Alharir. He knows he’s walking a tightrope. If he can humiliate High Sheik Rami though further losses, he can put an end to the man’s ambitions to conquer Kriegsturm. But if he loses this army, there is nothing left in Al-Andalus to stop Rami from claiming the entire province. With his allies pleading for a more cautious approach, Sturm must grab destiny by the throat and risk everything in one decisive Sturm Strike.
