The Brave Free Men

Where the Anomes once ruled stands young Gastel Etzwane, facing a mortal threat to his homeland. Hoards of red Roguskhoi, armed by an unknown enemy, have swarmed out of the southern bogs to slaughter men, despoil women, and spread waves of terror. Through the peace imposed by the tyranny of the Anomes, men of Shant have lost the art of weaponry and war. Now Gastel must revive those skills to forge Shant’s citizens into an army- an army of the free.

In the afternoon I started in The Brave Free Men by Jack Vance, book 2 of the Durdane trilogy. My ebook copy came with nice cover art by Konstantin Korobov.
