What to expect

The Last Vigilant begins an unmissable new epic fantasy series, where unforgettable characters, intricate conspiracies and ancient magic collide

Shunned by the soldiers he commands, haunted by past tragedies, Sargent Holt Hawley is a broken man. But the child of a powerful ally has gone missing, and war between once peaceful nations is on the horizon. So, he and his squad have been sent to find a myth: the Vigilant. They are a rumored last survivor of an ancient order capable of performing acts of magic, and they've been lost to the world for decades. No one truly expects Hawley to succeed.

When he is forced to abandon his men, he stumbles upon a woman who claims to be the Last Vigilant. Enelda Drake is wizened and out of practice, and she seems a far cry from the heroes of legend. But they will need her powers, and each other, to survive. For nothing in the town of Scarfell is as it seems. Corrupt soldiers and calculating politicians thwart their efforts at every turn.

And there are dark whispers on the wind threatening the arrival of an ancient and powerful enemy. The Last Vigilant is not the only myth returning from the dead.

Critics Review

This book crawled out of the deepest, darkest woods with violence in its heart. A terrific new world by a master fantasy author. I loved it

David Gemmell meets The Name of the Rose in a page turning mix of mystery and epic fantasy
Anthony Ryan
An intriguing mystery, genuinely harrowing fights, and intricate setting
Gareth Hanrahan
A wonderful tale, using a murder-mystery scenario to great effect set within a well-drawn fantastical world. The characters shone for me, especially the two central characters. I came to care about them, felt immersed in their journey. When a book makes me feel, it's a win for me. I loved it and would highly recommend
John Gwynne
