The Hunter's Lament

Infamous bounty hunter Bitter Sweet has led his crew of like-minded miscreants for nearly thirty years. They can track and capture any man or woman in the known world...for a price.

But Sweet is tired. Decades of pursuing the lowest reaches that humanity has to offer have taken their toll. The grime, the lies, the danger, the death. He's sick of it all. But it's the only business he knows, and business is good in the aftermath of a long and bloody war. The unstoppable armies of the Vol Empire have conquered Pratia, obliterating all opposition and occupying the kingdom's cities as they establish a brutal new order. The Pratian king is slain in the carnage, but his son-the Crown Prince and sole heir to the throne-has vanished.

Eager to tie up the loose ends, the new Vol rulers turn to those who know the land and its people the best. Bounty hunters.

Against his better instincts, Sweet accepts the contract and sets out in search of the fugitive Crown Prince. But his crew are not alone in the hunt. Danger rides with them every step of the way. Rival gangs, Vol soldiers, deadly trackers and dark magickers are all pursuing the heir to Pratia, too.

Soon Sweet and his crew have a choice to make, hunt or be hunted?

The Hunter's Lament is a novel for fantasy fans who like fast-paced, gritty story-telling and unpredictable characters with rough edges. Join Bitter Sweet and his motley crew of bounty hunters as they lie, fight and flee their way across a war-torn kingdom in pursuit of a fugitive prince.
