The Shattered Oath

​

Described as 'savage and pure carnage' by reviewers, SABRE is a dark Gothic fantasy brimming with ruthless power struggles, perilous adventures, blood soaked twists, fraught romances, and a rich list of iconic characters to die for, making this series your next obsession...

Like Game of Thrones set to sea with a dose of The Poppy War and the grit of the First Law, all thrown into a unique Gothic era.

The Night Devils rule the seas without mercy.

​

For two centuries, they have held the Merithian Empire at bay, binding them to an ocean of blood.

​

Yet, the unit faces disbandment for its growing power and brutality. And when the vice admiral mysteriously vanishes, order falls to the infamous Commander Grenyard - a sailor feared for his searing hatred and cruelty.

​

Thrust into this storm is ten-year-old, Todd Witherow. Conscripted into his late brother’s squadron, Sabre, Todd must endure war and survive Grenyard’s wrath while concealing a secret deemed punishable by death.

​

Back home, their kingdom edges towards ruin. The industrial revolution has been accelerated by a precious new resource, hycinthium-lapis. But this awakens dark ambitions. Corrupt lords desire supremacy, tainted Night Devils seek dominion and King Oborus clings to his reign.

​

Only one man may prevent the slaughter: Todd’s imprisoned father and disgraced knight of the realm, Sir Alan Witherow. Under oath, three veterans embark upon a perilous journey to rescue him, so he may help foil a revolution and see his son returned. But time is short...

Their lives, the fate of their realm, lay in the hands of the legendary Sabres…
