Black Heart: Part Two: In the Coils of a Horned Serpent
The last survivors of the raid on the Barrow of Azharad find themselves slipping further and further into webs of danger and intrigue. Erim, carrying a special burden, finds death behind the pleasant facade of the Tournament of Flowers; Godewyn Red-Hand enters into the service of men of power and ill intent; Stjepan Black-Heart walks high trails in the wild hills of the Manon Mole; and Annwyn of the Black Tower receives a visitor who is not what he seems.
BLACK HEART — the sequel to THE BARROW — will be released digitally in three parts; Part One — WORDS ON WIND, ADRIFT ON DREAMS OF SPLENDOR — has already been released on the Kindle. This is Part Two: IN THE COILS OF A HORNED SERPENT.
