With the help of his friends Kaiana, Delmin, and Mila, he\u2019s been able to strike real blows against Fenmere\u2019s empire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But Veranix\u2019s fight has earned him more enemies than just Fenmere, including the mad alchemist Cuse Jensett, the imposters Erno Don and Enzin Hence, and the Deadly Birds Magpie and Jackdaw. These five killers join forces to escape Quarrygate Prison and offer an alliance to Fenmere, bringing with them the perfect leverage to seal the deal: the Thorn\u2019s identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once Fenmere knows who Veranix is, he doesn\u2019t just want to kill him, but to utterly shatter him. Calling on everyone in Maradaine holding a grudge against the Thorn, he unleashes a brutal hunt against Veranix. With old and new enemies all looking to claim the bounty on his head, stripped of the security of his secret identity, Veranix faces the most brutal fight of his all too-short life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-system-serif-font-family has-small-font-size\">&#8220;<strong>An excellent natural continuation of Veranix\u2019s tale.
