Riassunto

Young Cat Calhoun’s carefully sheltered life takes an extraordinary turn after a fateful---and near fatal---encounter with a beautiful woman and murderous giant. Forced to leave his uncle and their modest farm behind, naïve Cat finds himself thrown into a new world of pirates, politics and prophecies. Mentored by the infamous Captain Dante D’Arc aboard The Chimera, he lives and learns with a special breed of men far removed from the thieving profiteers of song and legend. Instead, he finds himself fighting alongside selfless men willing to give their lives in ending a threat against the Fallen Lands fragile peace. For the bitter giant, being an outlaw and outsider means taking all that life has to offer by cunning and force. But even when he finds the most meager hope of happiness, the Fates intervene and the haunted man known simply as Bear finds himself treading down ever darker roads. From paid enforcer, to arena champion, to desperate exile---the giant, driven by revenge, draws inevitably closer to a grim and bloody destiny. They travel disparate paths but neither man can escape the unseen forces drawing their lives ever closer. Days pass, men die and kingdoms fall but for these two strangers, the collision of their fates could mean redemption or ruin for an unsuspecting world. Welcome to the Fallen Lands.

Informazioni sull'autore

Living on an island, steeped in the history and culture of pirates, Vikings and North America’s first people---it’s not surprising that my first novel borrows heavily from those influences. Every day I have the pleasure of looking out on ancient mountains looking over the ever changing seas and wind lashed coastlines. It’s also no surprise that my fictional world, the Fallen Lands, while inspired in a small part by the Golden Age of Piracy, embodies most the passion, humor and strength of the people making this brutally beautiful island---known fittingly enough as The Rock---their home.
