The Oathwarden: Path of Blood - Hardcover

by James D. Conrad (Author)

An epic fantasy of a powerless man holding the powers-that-be accountable.

Thomas, a humble engineer, sees his life shattered by a power far beyond his own. Forced to uncover the truth behind a string of unnatural events, he discovers that the gods of old are neither gone nor merciful.

Set between the ridgelines of modern Appalachia and the ruins of ancient Greece, The Oathwarden: Path of Blood follows his struggle to confront divine forces that treat mortal lives as expendable. Lacking strength to face them alone, Thomas must forge uneasy alliances and challenge the old order itself. He seeks to hold those with power accountable to those without. Even compassion becomes the hardest virtue to keep.

The Oathwarden: Path of Blood is Epic One in The Oathwarden Series-in a literary fantasy series that reimagines Greek myth, Biblical lore, and Appalachian storytelling through the eyes of mortals caught in its shadow.

This immersive 95,000-word debut is ideal for adult readers of mythic, cryptid, or epic historical fantasy.
