The Legacy of Lord Regret

Legend tells of a time when eight powerful threaders, known as the Wardens, fought each other for control of Aorn. But that was hundreds of years ago now, so why does the earth shake once more? Why does night fall during the day? And what is this scent of earth burning, blowing on the breeze? Book One of the STRANGE THREADS duology.

Rostigan is a great warrior, reluctantly renowned as Skullrender, champion of the battle at Ilduin Fields. He has since taken to wandering the quieter corners of Aorn, earning his coin through collection of magical herbs. Travelling with him is his minstrel and lover, Tarzi, who hopes he may soon commit more deeds worthy of song and tale, despite his desire to remain apart. Unfortunately for him, she may be right - for when Rostigan and Tarzi travel to the magnificent city of Silverstone, they discover it has been wrenched from the earth. As they travel onwards seeking answers, they soon learn the rotten truth. The land, once again, has descended into chaos for the Wardens have somehow returned.
