Blackcloak: A Man of his Sword

By W. James Chan

Bear witness to a psychological vivisection.

This is the disturbing tale of a fractured, damaged personality set in a land not unlike ancient China. Here, elemental forces are real, dreams can reshape a lifetime, and the night is owned by horrifying yet revered entities. Here, two very different halves of the same man are teased out, tempted, examined, cross-examined and eventually reconstructed to form a whole of unprecedented power. Two ambitious women vie for control over this potential weapon: Dhiana, who took his memories in the first place, and Vachaelle, who is determined to mould the boy into a sword of her own.

Blackcloak: come for the poor young villager dreaming of a magic sword that talks to him, stay for the possibility the poor young villager isn't any of those three things, and the sword is not talking at all.
