Synopsis

"An unpredictable protagonist... an excellent center point for this series." — Self-Publishing Review

First they took his family. Then they gave him a sword.

Corin an Fol was fourteen when the pirates came to Finnehalle. By nightfall his father and brothers were dead and his sister sold into slavery across the sea. Over his family's graves, Corin made a promise: the men who did this would die by his hand. Every last one.

Five years later, the boy is gone. In his place stands a Wolf, a soldier in the most feared regiment in the Four Kingdoms, marked since boyhood by a sorceress he's never forgotten. Hunting the men he swore to kill through the burning southern deserts, Corin finds something he never expected. Brothers who would die for him. A woman as deadly as he is, who loves him anyway. A reason to live beyond revenge.

Then he learns the worst monsters don't sail under pirate flags. Some wear the same gray cloak he does.

Betrayed by his own swordmaster, ambushed beneath a storm of arrows, Corin loses his second family the way he lost his first. The traitor rides away, certain no one survived.

He should have made sure.

There's a new name on the list.


For readers who crave grimdark fantasy with visceral betrayals and unflinching brutality—Gray Wolf delivers a relentless tale of loss, brotherhood, and the savage price of vengeance.

"There was a bit of The Witcher in this—the humor catches you off guard." — Amazon Review

"Not your typical knights in shining armor. This is the scarred brother seeking vengeance." — Amazon Review

Présentation de l'éditeur

Raiders stole his childhood. It's time Corin made them pay.

When his parents are murdered, and his sister taken by raiders, Corin's world crashes in on him. Wild and willful, he joins the elite Wolf Regiment but swiftly falls foul of its swordmaster, the brutal Taskala.

The regiment becomes embroiled in a vicious civil war between the sultan of Permio and rebel tribesmen. Corin, caught in the treacherous power play between rival factions and corrupt leaders, struggles to survive. Torn between his quest for vengeance and growing hatred for the sadistic Taskala, Corin has to intervene when the woman he loves becomes the latest target of Taskala's wrath.

Gray Wolf is the first book in a trilogy featuring Corin an Fol, a man chosen by the gods to walk a dark path. The novel forms part of the Legends of Ansu, a spellbinding fantasy series. If you like tough action featuring gritty characters set to a vivid fantasy backdrop of war, and vengeance, then you are going to love this new tale by JW Webb.
