Tim Stretton’s
The Last Free City
Following his incredible historical fantasy books, Dragonchaser and The Dog of the North, Tim Stretton returns to Mondia with his most exciting story yet:
“A story of three men struggling to realise their ambitions against the backdrop of an unstable and corrupt trading republic, where one false move leads to a throat slit in an alleyway.
Lord Oricien, his fortunes in ruins at the end of The Dog of the North, must undertake a delicate diplomatic mission but soon finds that he cannot satisfy both his master and his conscience.
Malvazan, as the younger brother of a mediocrity, sees his ambitions thwarted at every turn. Will his extraordinary talent with the rapier gain him a consequence his birth cannot?
Todarko, talented and well-born, is unused to exercising self-control. This often leads him into trouble, but when he makes an enemy of the dangerous Dravadan, he realises that his life is at risk. It’s the start of a journey of self-discovery which will make him a better man—if he survives. For a poet more at home with a couplet than a cutlass, that’s not a foregone conclusion…“
