Swords of Wrath

Shaman's Sword #5

by Robert Ryan

The shamans rule by fear, and cast their might against any rebellion. But Shar, the hope for a free land, defies them with courage and cunning…

Against all odds, Shar yet lives. A price in gold is on her head. She has battled a god, and survived. Her army is besieged in a fortress, but holds at bay the seething horde sent to destroy them. Until now.

For the shamans, fearing the rebellion will spread if it continues, risk a forbidden magic to destroy Shar and her army. A magic that might unravel and unleash catastrophic forces no one can control.

But Shar, driven by need, has a plan of her own. One that will make the shamans tremble. To succeed though, she must not risk just her life but her very soul…

About the author

I am a man born in the wrong era. My heart yearns for faraway places and even further afield times. Tolkien had me at the beginning of The Hobbit when he said, ". . . one morning long ago in the quiet of the world . . ."

I love to read high fantasy and epic fantasy novels, and I have a passion to write, to weave a story with words that draws the reader into another world.

More twists and turns

In a tale of risk verses reward Shar FEI must take big risks in order to fulfill her dream of uniting the cheng nation. Only time will tell if she will be out maneuvered.

Ryan

Always a good, although often to predictable and needs a new culture to explore in his writing. His original work is still his strongest

Some irregularities

Wonder why those she cuts with her swords dont burn, if it is death to those who touch them or are toched by them
