About this listen

Rorke Burgess returns to his homeland, Nemthia, seven years after the end of a civil war in which the old regime lost. The throne is now occupied by Prince Maren, who overthrew his father, King Broman, with the aid of a mysterious sorcerer known as the Necromancer. When the Necromancer raised the dead and made them fight again, Rorke fled the battlefield, abandoning his country and his family. With such sorcery at their command, Maren and the Necromancer easily defeated King Broman, including his famed and feared Fifth Legion, also known as Broman's Blades. The Blades were warriors, but more than that; they were heroes to the people, justice personified and larger than life, so feared that their reputation alone had been enough to send most enemies scurrying. The Blades marked their members distinctly -- a cut from temple to jaw on the right side of the face left a scar no one could miss. Rorke has a scar almost exactly similar, but his came from a fisherman's gaff during a tavern brawl after he'd fled Nemthia as a deserter from King Broman's army. The scar has caused him no end of trouble, as there is a bounty on the few surviving Blades. He is often mistaken for one and forced to defend himself. Now Rorke has returned to see if his sister and mother still live. Surely seven years is long enough? And it's not as though Rorke was really a Blade anyway, he was just a deserter with an inconvenient scar. All he wants is to see if his family still lives. What he gets is a lot more.
