Book 1: The Legend of Ivan the Knight
Long ago, in the far reaches of the North, a monstrous guardian watched over a mighty treasure. When a lone knight set out to slay the beast and claim the treasure for himself, he believed glory awaited him. But legends rarely end as expected …
Book 2: The Bounty Hunters
After a mission that ended in disaster, the two bounty hunters — Elrand the elf and Tam-Tam the half-troll — cross paths with the duke’s daughter, Vigga, who is fleeing from the feared Tarks. Sworn to protect her, they set out together, hoping the deed will earn them a handsome reward.
