Theok The Indomitable: A Spill Of Sorcerer's Blood - Paperback

by James R. Tuck (Author)

A pulse pounding collection of five Sword And Sorcery tales in the vein of Robert E. Howard. Starring Theok a Northlands barbarian striding through a violent world with a hatred for wizards, a vengeful God in his heart, and a thirsty axe. WHERE THE RED BLOSSOMS WEEP: Theok is the last man standing after an epic battle of two armies. Staggering off the battlefield he finds a wounded enemy soldier and the two of them discover the dead are not safe to be around. ANGELS OF SCRAWL: Theok is hired to retrieve two sisters from the clutches of a sleazy wizard named Scrawl who has three Mythos creatures as pets. The ending of this will break your heart. VISCERA OF A GOD-THING: An older Theok is living as a sellsword when he is summoned to a cafe in downtown Aquilonia. There he battles Stygian snake-men and the grotesque thing they have called into existence. STEM OF THE BLACK DAWN: The first story written about Theok and the first long fiction written by James R. Tuck. This novella is dark and bloody and disturbing. Theok faces his mortal enemy Slain, the nephilim son of Acheron. ONE LAST TIME (bonus story): A fun sword and sorcery tale of divorce. Not a Theok story, this one stars Wulfang and Iron Kara and a bar full of soldiers. This is also an ILLUSTRATED edition featuring artwork by the author at the beginning of each story.
