About “The Cold Commands”
Ringil Eskiath, wielder of the kiriath-forged broadsword Ravensfriend, is on the run from his past, the family that disowned him, slave trade magnates who want him dead, and dark gods taking an unclear interest in him. Exiled from his northern home, he seeks asylum in Yhelteth with the kiriath half-breed Archeth Indamaninarmal, a former war comrade now serving as advisor to Emperor Jhiral Khimran II.
Praise for “The Cold Commands”
“Heroic fantasy [with] several surprising twists.”
“[Richard K.] Morgan brings a fresh approach to epic fantasy. . . . [The Cold Commands] should appeal to fans of George R. R. Martin’s Song of Ice and Fire series.”
“Pulpy and hard-core, but with a heart of gold . . . Imagine a drawing by Frank Frazetta, come to life in an intelligent story full of dry wit and characters you actually care about.”
