After surviving a long, brutal war, Barrin and his lover, Kahri, attempt to lead a normal life, until a sorcerer with terrible ambitions tears them apart.

In a desperate search, Barrin forges a path of death and destruction across the cruel and pitiless land and will not stop until he reunites with the only person he has ever loved.

His enemies will soon learn that Barrin cannot be contained. Cannot be stopped. He is more than a love-lorn man. He is war!

A swords & sorcery epic in the vein of Conan.
