Synopsis

Prince Manfred and his mentor and bodyguard, the deadly warrior Erik, survived dangers and enemies both natural and supernatural, and if they thought that their new mission was going to be anything but more of the same, they soon gave up on that hope. Returning from Jerusalem, they and members of the knights of the Holy Trinity are escorting an envoy of II Khan Mongol to the lands of the Golden Horde - between the Black Sea and the Carpathians, which happen to be eastern bastion against their old enemies, the demon Chernobog, and his possessed puppet, the Jangellion. Unfortunately, what began as a diplomatic mission leads to Manfred and his knights being caught up in an inter-clan civil war, rescuing a fugitive woman and her injured brother, and becoming involved in the problems of Prince Vlad, Duke of Valahia. Manfred and Erik are forced into an alliance of convenience between the Golden Horde and the ancient magical forces of Valahia, as directed by the troubled Vlad. The magic calls for blood and Vlad is deathly afraid of it - and at the same time, is irresistibly drawn toward it... Much Fall of Blood is the sequel to The Shadow of the Lion and This Rough Magic in the Heirs of Alexandria series.
