Publisher's Synopsis
Aelix Treagan was a hero of the North: a smith's son uplifted by valor on the battlefield. Once a peasant, Aelix found himself a lord, honored by his kith and kin, and recorded as one of history's greatest warriors. And then he died a cruel, dishonorable death. Centuries later, Lord Treagan is returned from oblivion to serve a necromancer with little concept of kindness. Aelix is a man out of his time, having lost everything but his barbaric honor. After seeing everything he held dear--his family, his once-proud home--in ancient ash, a man still mourning a long-past world must decide the fate of a new one.
