What would you do if you let slip information that could start a war?
What if the person you divulged said information to is a rebel queen with a thirst for blood?
In a world where metal is rare, you probably wouldn’t make matters worse by revealing a map showing the location of the hoard of steel you just told her about.
Steel she could turn into swords, spears, and axes. Steel that will destroy her foes with their pathetic hardened glass weapons and leather armour.
Unfortunately, Drome isn’t the most gifted of people when it comes to discretion. Or thinking things through.
The consequences hurl him down a path riddled with folk keen to boil him alive, stick pointy objects in his tender flesh or blow him into tiny pieces.
With the real queen gunning for him too, Drome reluctantly embarks on a secret mission to fix the mess he started.
The civilised world depends on him. All he has to do is end a savage war.
With a princess and a sorcerer on his side, what could possibly go wrong?
If you like Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams, and Joe Abercrombie, you won’t be able to put down the compulsively addictive Hollow series.
