Über dieses E-Book

Swashbuckling adventure awaits four unemployed knights searching for treasure in this fantasy tale by the award-winning author of The Jaguar Knights.

Sir Rhys, Sir Sharp, and Sir Trusty may be three of the world’s greatest swordsmen, but that hasn’t saved them from being let go from their positions as Royal Guards. All three are still young , and without a job or pension, they need to find some way of making money.

Rhys’s father, Sir Spender, is a great Blade hero listed in the Litany. He is also without a job and may have a solution for their predicament. A great treasure was lost more than thirty years ago, and Spender thinks he knows its location and suggests they find it.

Of course, Spender is not the only one to remember the lost treasure. King Ambrose claims it as his own—and is ready to use all the manpower at his disposal to get his hands on it first . . .
