Book Description
Malfus's past has finally caught up with him. He's a renegade, an outlaw, a necromancer. Now he's a prisoner.
He's been captured by Inquisitor Deza, to be tried, tortured, and executed for his crimes. But they're ambushed by half-hyena marauders, forcing them to take refuge with a heavily wounded battalion already under siege by the monsters.
Deza only cares about his mission. But another assault by the marauders would be a death sentence for the battalion. The only option remaining is to free Malfus and to raise an army of the dead.
But will the dead be enough to save the living?
About the Book
Malfus: Necromancer Unchained made #1 New Release in Military Fantasy on Amazon! It has also been in the Top 50 books on the entire RoyalRoad website! This book has been self-published by an indie author after a near-death experience pushed him to start writing. It has 10 full-color illustrations by fantasy artist Dejan Delic, and a 2-page world map. It has been edited by an editor who has worked with Brandon Sanderson and Dan Abnett. The cover has been designed by Alejandro Colucci, who has worked with Anne Rice, Joe Abercrombie, and designed some covers for The Witcher books. This book reads like Abercombie but has magic systems like Sanderson. Dungeons and Dragons meets Quentin Tarantino!
