The Blasted Crown (The Ballad Of Nicholes Irontar)

He was an aristocrat. He was a child. He was Nicholes Merman. His story was simple enough. A young lad destined to succeed his father and live out his day in peace until one faithful day, the game changed. When a priceless crown is stolen and his family butchered before his eyes, Nicholes runs into exile with the Ursie "Bear People" Gron Claw. In the end of the day when he meets his gods face to face, a decision must be made. Live as a coward or die a hero. Whatever he picks will determine his fate. Set in a world where history and fantasy collide, Nicholes must not only fight his enemies but himself and his ever growing lust for blood and revenge. The question is what will he choose. Honor and peace or the horrors of what he is capable of. Swords and magic mean nothing when you have a rifle pointed at you. Figure that out or die...
