Four-Hands and the Legion Blade by Rin Greenwood Pdf

Euphie--Elf, wanderer, casual drinker--carries a perhaps ill-considered loyalty and lifelong debt to Kieran 'Four-Hands' Sheaford--thief, philanderer, adequate poet. She recounts her travels with him, not least of which is that of the Legion Blade. When the pair of mercenaries have their tab called in at their usual haunt, Kieran steers them to a high-paying job to recover the stolen heirloom of the Widow Fairfax. However, the quest is not the quick cash-grab it appeared to be, as the circumstances of the theft call for suspicion, and the heirloom in question holds striking similarities to a sword of legend --the Legion Blade-- which is said to be possessed by one thousand murdered souls. Driven by his love for the mystical and a certain fondness for the client's physical form, Kieran accepts the job, trusting the grunt work to his long-suffering companion.

The Crimson Legion by Troy Denning Pdf

With Tyr’s most vile enemy dead, a new tyrannical ruler takes his place in this second Prism Pentad novel set in the post-apocalyptic world of Dark Sun After a millennium of sorrow, the city of Tyr has cast off the yoke of the brutal sorcerer-king Kalak. The new ruler, Tithian of Mericies, has liberated the slaves—and plunged the city into chaos. In a cruel twist of fate, Tyr’s triumph may very well become its death knell. Only Rikus, the man-dwarf gladiator who sparked the rebellion against Kalak, can save Tyr from its new enemy: the invading armies of Urik, a neighboring city that seeks to conquer Tyr and its Iron Mines. With a ragtag militia of nobles, templars, and former slaves, Rikus must stand against Urik’s forces and their evil leader. But strength of arm does not necessarily make a good general—as Rikus will learn before the conflict is over.

Indomitus Est by Robert W. Brady, Jr Pdf

Imagine yourself, born into the suburbs, your parents working class people, your school nothing special. Imagine that, for some reason far beyond your understanding as a very young child, a god that you didn't even know existed ear-marked you as his bargaining chip in a trade across realities. Imagine that, from the time of that first first meeting and for your next eighteen years, that god - Anubis - threw everything he could think of at you, to break you, to torment you, to forge you into this thing to be traded. And imagine that, at the end of it all, you passed all of the tests, leaving your life in a shambles, never knowing that you were being tested at all and, when the time came, Anubis appeared and tricked you into giving up your soul to him, only to make the trade and give you over to another god, named War, who by comparison made Anubis seem like a pretty nice guy. I'm Randy Morden - welcome to my world. A world named 'Fovea,' where magic is real, technology the stuff of fantasy, and warriors with swords ride horses into battle, trying to stay one step ahead of their gods' will. I didn't ask for this life, but I promise you: before anyone ever knocks me down again, I'm going to have their blood on my knuckles, because a man can only be pushed so far!

He is remembered best for Beau Geste, a much-filmed book of 1924, involving the French Foreign Legion in North Africa. This was one of 33 novels and short story collections that he wrote, mostly dealing with colonial soldiering in Africa. While his fictional accounts of life in the pre-1914 Foreign Legion are highly romanticized, his details of Legion uniforms, training, equipment and barrack room layout are generally accurate, which has led to unproven suggestions that Wren himself served with the legion.

The two of them know all too well that any task coming from a Superior can’t possibly be as simple as it seems, and their suspicions are soon justified when the sand-ship becomes a battleground for multiple rival factions. Just what plans do these organizations have for the sand liner—or is it the cargo they’re all after instead? Numerous Superior Jobs converge upon this jewel of the desert—The Weapon, Murder Princess, King of Burglary, and Over Pilot among them—each with their own schemes in motion. Hugo has no choice but to face the ensuing carnage...but can he emerge victorious in this capriccio on the sands?
