Framed for the brutal murder of his family by the very friend he trusted most, Athelstan's life ends in betrayal and despair. Fortunately for him, the god of malice noticed the hatred that burner in his heart.
Reborn in a savage new world of warring clans and untamed wilderness, he quickly realizes that vengeance demands more than blood.
It demands conquest.
To exact his revenge, he must rise as a warlord among barbarians and unite them into an unstoppable horde.
Empires will crumble and great cities will fall, for only those consumed by malice are worthy of divine favor.
“What price are you willing to pay for vengeance?”
“Everything.”
