For the name of any man to be known throughout most of the northern hemisphere of Arn, is no small achievement in and of itself. For that man to be infamous for belligerence and incredible feats of prowess in battle is nothing short of legend-worthy.Such a man is Rimmegoan Dayor. Considered to be the greatest warrior-for-hire north of the Baershksh Wall, the stories surrounding him are matched only bysuch legends as Worik, and the Slayer.But all of the stories known of Rim thus far will pale in comparison to the challenges he must face when an eccentric old man, Harin Oudek, hires Rim as a bodyguard and takes him to a formerly uncharted island in the Barren Ocean of Arn.Against a myriad of foes, Rim’s strength and skill will be tested unlike they have ever been before as Harin attempts to point him away from the path of fury that has guided his entire life. . .
