Description

Rejoin fantasys most deadly and dysfunctional mercenaries in the sequel to debut sensation THE BLACK HAWKS.
Bound by oath and honour, Vedren Chel found himself drawn to the heart of a deadly rebellion. With him stood the mercenaries of the Black Hawk Company, who were only ever in it for the money.

But the uprising failed. Now, Chel and the sell-sword Rennic languish in prison, watching as their comrades are taken one by one for execution.

A daring escape will set them free, but with the combined forces of vengeful church and voracious crown arrayed against them, Chel and the Black Hawks must embark on a desperate search for new allies.

Journeying from frozen wastes to towering cities, from drug-riddled fleapits to opulent palaces, THE RIGHTEOUS is the thrilling and riotous second adventure from one of fantasys most exciting new voices.

Reviews

Immensely entertaining
The Fantasy Hive

PRAISE FOR THE BLACK HAWKS:

Reminds me of Abercrombies THE BLADE ITSELF
Nicholas Eames, author of KINGS OF THE WYLD

Refreshing and entertaining, like a cross between Nicholas Eames and Joe Abercrombie; THE BLACK HAWKS is simply a joy to read
Peter McLean, author of PRIEST OF BONES

Wragg captures the classic fantasy spirit of adventure and exploration, wraps it with stabbed backs and cannibals and gifts it to you on a bed of action
Ed McDonald, author of BLACKWING

Everyone loves a good mercenary tale, but THE BLACK HAWKS offers more besides: a protagonist who's refreshingly rubbish at fighting, a supporting cast who'd be fascinating if they were just standing around in a supermarket, and an author who knows when to dodge cliches, and when to jump in and splash like a kid in a puddle
Nate Crowley, author of 100 BEST VIDEO GAMES (THAT NEVER EXISTED)

Check out THE BLACK HAWKS its full of fun characters, mercenary antics, twists, turns, and contains my favourite fantasy lemon
Peter Newman, Gemmell Award-winning author of THE VAGRANT and THE DEATHLESS

A remarkably assured debutI cant wait to see what happens next
Anna Stephens, author of GODBLIND

Author Bio

Dave Wragg really got into writing stories just as he finished English GCSE, then took about twenty years to get back to it. In the meantime, he studied software engineering, worked in global shipping and technical consultancy, and once spent a year in the Foreign Office 'hiding in the basement'. He currently does Software Odd Jobs around central London. In his vanishingly rare free time (when not working, writing, or enjoying the fruits of parenthood), he tries to consume as much digital entertainment as possible, as well as reading genre fiction and enjoying the odd board game. Some of them are very odd indeed. Dave lives in Hertfordshire with his wife, two small daughters and two smaller cats.
