Publisher's Synopsis
"The King of High Adventure," Starlog.
"Immediately convincing, classically brooding," Steve Tompkins, TheCimmerian.com
To the world at large, he is a mercenary and assassin, a brutal killer with a deadly blade. In reality, Kormak is a Guardian, one of an ancient order sworn to protect humanity from the servants of the gathering darkness.
DEFILER OF TOMBS
An open tomb, a dead child and an unleashed ancient horror send Kormak on a path of vengeance through the haunted northlands of Taurea. He seeks Morghael, a necromancer with a plan for resurrecting the dark empire of Kharon and the power to bring the dead swarming back to life.
