'A gloriously gritty adventure through Hanrahan's astonishing
imagination' Peter McLean, author of Priest of Bones THE SWORD
CARES NOT WHO IT CUTS Many years ago, Sir Aelfric and his nine
companions saved the world, seizing the Dark Lord's cursed weapons,
along with his dread city of Necrad. That was the easy part. Now,
when Aelfric - keeper of the cursed sword Spellbreaker - learns of
a new and terrifying threat, he seeks the nine heroes once again.
But they are wandering adventurers no longer. Yesterday's eager
heroes are today's weary leaders - and some have turned to the
darkness, becoming monsters themselves. If there's one thing
Aelfric knows, it's slaying monsters. Even if they used to be his
friends. Set in a world of dark myth and dangerous prophecy, The
Sword Defiant launches an epic tale of daring warriors, living
weapons and bloodthirsty vengeance. Praise for Gareth Hanrahan:
