✦ Synopsis

VAELIN AL SORNA RETURNS Anthony Ryans debut novelBlood Songthe first book of the Ravens Shadow seriestook the fantasy world by storm. Now, he continues that saga withThe Wolfs Call, which begins a thrilling new story of razor-sharp action and epic adventure.

Peace never lasts.

Vaelin Al Sorna is a living legend, his name known across the Realm. It
was his leadership that overthrew empires, his blade that won
hard-fought battles and his sacrifice that defeated an evil more
terrifying than anything the world had ever seen. He won titles aplenty,
only to cast aside his earned glory for a quiet life in the Realms
northern reaches.

Yet whispers have come from across the sea
rumours of an army called the Steel Horde, led by a man who believes
himself a god. Vaelin has no wish to fight another war, but when he
learns that Sherin, the woman he lost long ago, has fallen into the
Hordes grasp, he resolves to confront this powerful new threat.

To this end, Vaelin travels to the realms of the Merchant Kings, a land
ruled by honor and intrigue. There, as the drums of war thunder across
kingdoms riven by conflict, Vaelin learns a terrible truth: that there
are some battles that even he may not be strong enough to win.
