Black Lion

Gallãd is balancing precariously upon the precipice of change. The Kingsmeet will soon decide the new ruler for the next twenty years, and Aemon Loch, The Black Lion of MacMorgaen, wakes in a field of bodies after the first battle of the revolution between the working-class Faine, and the ruling-class Dyune catches him by surprise. After being saved by Sìle, a Faine girl who possesses illegal magic, Aemon must repay his life debt by taking her to the port city of Cathar, where she can secure a ship and escape the agents of The Tower of Fang before they can break her mind and turn her into a living weapon.

Riding across Gallãd is no easy task. Monsters, spirits, and bloodthirsty bandits of the Doir stand in front of them, and The Hounds, a band of warriors sent after deserters from Caer Chulainn nip at their heels. Only by working together with Sìle and facing the daemons of his past can Aemon fulfil his task, regain his honor, and end the nightmares that have plagued him since the night of his greatest mistake. Success may finally bring him a desperately sought peace, but failure will cost him everything.

The Black Lion includes violence, language, use of alcohol and tobbacco, and some sexuality. Some readers under 17 years of age may find the content sensative.
