In the ruins of a fallen empire, mercenary Kaelen Duskbane seeks only coin and forgetfulness-until he uncovers a blade that breathes his name. The Ghostblade carries the bound soul of Serenya, a woman of light and fury whose whispers twist through his thoughts. Each time Kaelen draws the sword, it hungers-for blood, for memory, for him.
Pursued by Malrik, a necromancer who forged the weapon centuries ago, and aided by Lyra, a scholar who sees more humanity in curses than in men, Kaelen is dragged into a war between the living and the dead. As kingdoms rot and the Veil thins, the bond between Kaelen and Serenya deepens into something neither human nor holy.
To end the curse, Kaelen must face the truth of what the blade remembers-and what it demands he become.
But every act of salvation feeds the very darkness he's sworn to destroy.
Ghostblade is a dark, lyrical fantasy of power, guilt, and impossible love-where the line between savior and monster is drawn in ash, and redemption always leaves a scar.
