Saevus Corax Deals with the Dead2023

The first novel in a new epic fantasy trilogy from World Fantasy Award-winner K. J. Parker. There’s no formal training for battlefield salvage. You just have to pick things up as you go along. Swords, armor, arrows – and the bodies, of course.   Over the years, Saevus Corax has picked up a lot of things. Some of them have made him decent money, others have brought nothing but trouble. But it’s a living, and somebody has to deal with the dead.    Something else that Saevus has buried is his past. Unfortunately, he didn’t quite succeed. For more from K. J.
