Description
A simple fetch quest turns into something much more when ancient magic intervenes—the “highly anticipated” follow up to the “entertaining” epic fantasy, The Copper Promise (The Guardian)
Wydrin of Crosshaven, Sir Sebastian and Lord Aaron Frith are experienced in the perils of stirring up the old gods. They are also familiar with defeating them, and the heroes of Baneswatch are now enjoying the perks of suddenly being very much in demand for their services.
When a job comes up in the distant city of Skaldshollow, it looks like easy coin: retrieve a stolen item, admire the views, get paid. But in a place twisted and haunted by ancient magic—and with the most infamous mage of them all, Joah Demonsworn, making a reappearance—our heroes soon find themselves threatened by enemies on all sides, old and new. And in the frozen mountains, the stones are walking . . .

Advance Praise
“Williams has thrown out the rulebook and injected a fun tone into epic fantasy without lightening or watering down the excitement and adventure. Indeed, The Iron Ghost has its fairly brutal moments, like the best epic fantasy, but is shot through with a very contemporary sensibility. Highly recommended.”
– The Independent
“A highly inventive, vibrant high fantasy with a cast you can care about; fast-moving enough to ensure there is never a dull moment, but with sufficient depth to feel the outcome matters…”
– British Fantasy Society
“The highly anticipated sequel to the entertaining The Copper Promise, which featured appealing leads with a tendency to put self-interest ahead of heroism.”
