Sellswords: A Dark Fantasy in an Age of Enlightenment

'When I was born, the world started to die.

'By the time I was 5 1/2, the world had been killed by the Red Death and I was living in a Dwarf orphanage learning Dwarf values before that race died out.

'By 16, I had been struck by lightning and had become a wild mage struggling to control my powers.
'Now I'm a mercenary making a living fighting against the dark forces of the world.

'Well, at least I have job security.'

Sellswords is the first book in a series (the second book is also out) set in a world of high magic, where ideas are just as powerful as spells and gunpowder.
