A quest to silence a sword. Torant bears the Cacophony Blade, an unbreakable magic sword that grants him the strength of those it kills. There’s a price, of course. Now that he’s taken it up, he can’t cast it aside and worse, the soul of the last person it killed talks to him until the next one takes its place. After the last soul nearly destroys his mind, Torant goes in search of a magic sheath that will silence the Blade. Along with Laden, his oldest friend, and Cyana, a fearsome woman of the hawk-like Harriers, Torant searches for the Valley of Abiding Bones, where bone monsters, a hawk god, and a centuries-old wizard stand in his way. Beset by ambiguous enemies without and scheming voices within, Torant finds that his journey into the Valley is but the first step on his quest to avoid madness. Forged in Madness is the second Cacophony Blade Novel, a series of stand-alone, sword and sorcery tales that follow the adventures of Torant Stonebreaker, Laden Slate, and the Cacophony Blade. Dive into a fast-paced world of magic, steel, and monsters in the tradition of Leiber and Moorcock.
