SABRE: Part II amplifies the stakes and ventures into even darker, more thrilling terrain, demanding a spot on your shelf...
The Sabres have deserted the Royal SkuasOaths shattered, they have fled in pursuit of Vice Admiral Oswald Leonard and the truth behind his disappearance. With their steel he may restore order, unless Commander Grenyard's cutthroats find him first. And should Leonard reach their kingdom's nemesis, Merithia, the Sabres cannot let him defect.
Todd Witherow remains amongst them: a disgraced Sabre, the last of his line, trying to honour his family's legacy.
Yet, Todd's father lives. Three veterans continue their bloody journey across Arcaya to free him. Only Sir Alan Witherow can reform the Royal Skuas, whose archaic violence has imperilled his son. But they may be too late, for the kingdom now lies on the precipice of civil war...
Isolated, the Sabres skirt the outer reaches, beyond distant shores, where an even greater threat conspires... the dark power behind the rise of the night devil...
I can't recommend this series enough if you're looking for a dark fantasy with a difference. cosykindler ★★★★★ Fast paced, dramatic, with high stakes! lorettasbookshelf ★★★★★ The author outshines himself once again. Paola_Roman ★★★★★ Broken Oaths & Moral Reckonings: The Sabres aren't knights in shining armour, they're deserters wrestling with betrayal, duty, and the looming threat of civil war. The emotional depth and moral complexity will haunt you in the best way.A Missing Admiral, a Rising Devil: Central to this sequel is a chilling mystery and a shadowy force orchestrating destruction behind the scenes. It's part whodunit, part epic war saga, and entirely absorbing.
The Witherow Legacy: Todd remains a compelling figure, damaged, determined, and swept along by forces he barely understands. His father's bloody journey across Arcaya adds a layer of urgency and heartache that enriches the core conflict.
If The Shattered Oath was your first cannon blast, this sequel is the full barrage. It reads like The Lies of Locke Lamora met Black Sails, took a sharp left into gothic horror, and never looked back.
