A Warrior's Burden

In A Warrior's Burden, the first installment of the Saga of the Known Lands by best-selling author Jacob Peppers, we follow Cutter—formerly known as Prince Bernard, a feared figure in his kingdom and a key player in the Fey War. Having secluded himself for 15 years in the harsh wilderness with an infant he vowed to protect, Cutter cannot escape his tumultuous past when death arrives with vengeful forces seeking retribution. As old betrayals resurface and enemies converge on the village of Brighton, he must reclaim his warrior spirit and face the heavy consequences of his sins to fulfill his promise. This grimdark epic fantasy weaves together myth, magic, and the relentless struggle for survival.
