Publisher's summary

Don't draw your blade in the City of Swords, unless you're willing to kill...or ready to die.

Young and filled with idealistic fervor, Arturo packs his blade and travels to the fabled City of Swords in the hopes of joining the dashing Bravadori. Yet upon arriving, he discovers these masked vigilantes have more in common with brutal thugs than noble monster slayers. Disillusioned and mocked, he stubbornly refuses to give up his dreams.

When an impending bandit attack threatens untold depravities upon a distant village, and no others will heed the call for help, Arturo joins forces with a worthless outcast and a walking legend to attempt the impossible: to traverse the demon-haunted wilderness and prove that in the City of Swords, true heroes can rise from the unlikeliest of places.

Those Brave, Foolish Souls from the City of Swords is a gritty, action-packed stand-alone novel set in Benedict Patrick’s Yarnsworld, a land where folktales and fantasy mix, where the monsters from stories are real.

Includes a bonus novella from the Yarnsworld series and a special note from the author.

Fabulous!

Patrick continues to amaze me! The Yarnsworld stories are a such a treasure. I will be reading these again and again & giving the series as gifts. I can’t wait to see what Patrick comes out with next.

Solid addition to the Yarnsworld series

Uniquely tragic, like all of Benedict Patrick’s books, this one had a slightly more linear feel than his previous books.
Nevertheless, it is a sold addition to the series and I look forward to future works from Benedict Patrick.

Adventure in Folklore

I want more!!!!
I love the Islander tales the most, but the adventures of the Bravadores deserve accolades, as well.
