Ships From The West (Gollancz S.F.)

by PaulKearney (Author)

Synopsis

The mariner and adventurer Richard Hawkwood set sail years before, to see if there really was a continent in the uttermost west - and to claim its riches for his own. Little did he know that the exiled magic-users, who were banished from the lands lying within the Monarchies of God, got there first - and they bear no love for their long-forsaken homelands ...but Hawkwood has given them a reason to come home...This is the fifth and final volume in Paul Kearney's Monarchies of God saga, combining warfare, magic and political machinations in a rich, rewarding read.
