Gallow: The Last Bastion

Description

The last battle for the fate of your country is coming. My kin are out for blood and revenge. Another empire sees a chance to come in and pick up the pieces of our war. Most of your warriors are stuck hiding in the swamps, always aware that they do not have enough numbers to win a straight fight. And from over the seas, my people bring their most deadly weapons, the Fateguard. Living suits of armour, imbued with mystical and deadly power. The end times have come for your land. I have fought alongside you, I have bled for you, I have made myself a traitor to all I believe in for you. And yet you still do not trust me. But you have no option. This will be our last battle, and there is only one place that it can be fought. We must defend our stronghold, no matter how many lives it may cost, no matter how hard it is. For if we do not, there will be no mercy and no relief from the terrors to come. Good thing I'm on your side.

Nathan Hawke is a British writer of fantasy fiction. He has worked variously in the City, as a consultant to the police and to the Services. He has travelled in the Far East, worked for a time in Las Vegas, was briefly involved in video game design, and once skied off a mountain under a parachute for a bet.

A great mix of bloodied axes and brave warriors, an honest hero and the war that gets in his way
