Ashes of the Necropolis - Allen, Jordan

. .

Résumé :
The city of Furcht, a city rumoured to hold the secret to eternal life, calls to those who seek its greatest prize. The fools who heed the call, soon find themselves drawn into the Necropolis that lies at the edge of the city. Only evil awaits those who enter, and the good that enters does not last long.

Erde of Olfen, a renowned mercenary, awakens from a coma with only a letter telling him where the rest of his band has disappeared to. He sets off on a journey to Furcht in search of his companions, but finds that he must brave the undead army of the wicked lich, Xantem the Black, if he is to have any hope of finding them.

The mercenary soon realises that, in this cursed city, bravery will only get you so far.

Jordan Allen returns with his third book and the second in the Hollow Realms series, Hollow City. Returning to the dark fantasy world of its predecessor, Hollow City is even more action-packed than Hollow Kingdom.
