Zusatztext Tom Lloyd is an exciting author who is all about huge! bold and fearsome stories populated with magic! horror and chaos. Informationen zum Autor Tom Lloyd was born in 1979 in Berkshire.

Throw in the prospect of a bar fight and it's almost a holiday. But the volatile Mage Islands are a powder-keg, one just waiting for a spark. A bloody-handed exile perhaps, or the agent of a foreign power preparing for war. Maybe even a bunch of trigger-happy drunks who've upset the balance of magic across the Riven Kingdom.
