Far from the high stone walls and rich courts of the capital city, the man known as the Beast of the Borderlands hides from civilization in the deep woods of the Shade. Feared by many for something he never did, he uses his reputation to keep humanity at a distance. He discovers, however, you can't hide from the world, nor your past, and his rescue of a young, naive girl could be his salvation, or his death. SPLINTERED SOULS BOOK 1 THE BEAST OF THE BORDERLANDS From the author of the award-winning psychological thriller "The One: The Tale of a Lost Romantic in Seoul" and historical novel "The Blood of the Clan" comes the first tale in a new world of dark fantasy. In the crumbling kingdom of Maritz, a grizzled warrior called Alec just tries to survive alongside his longtime companion, his horse Isaac, and his closest ally, the wolfdog Rex. Jaded by the selfishness and greed of humanity, and driven to despair by the stranglehold the king's mercenaries have placed on the land, Alec lives day to day, avoiding people wherever possible but driven to help when necessary by a strict moral code. One day that moral code causes him to cross paths with two Swords of the Seraphim, deadly assassins from the neighbouring country, and with a villager named Knack who is far more than she seems. This encounter will change Alec's life forever, drawing him out of his self-inflicted exile and back into a complicated world he had hoped to leave behind. Intricate plots, diplomatic missions, haunting figures from the past, moral dilemmas, life-or-death battles, and self-sacrifice will all play a part in the story of the man known as the Beast of the Borderlands.
