When the banners of Christ no longer protect you from what lies beyond the veil... In the wake of the First Crusade, Sir Elrik of Saxony is sent deep into a forgotten land-a cursed, rotting frontier beyond the edges of Christendom-to reclaim a lost fortress for the Crusader States. With a dwindling band of knights and the weight of divine purpose on his shoulders, Elrik expects heathens, war, and hardship. He finds something far worse. The land is dying, the forests whisper in dead tongues, and the shadows stretch too long. Plagued by visions, haunted by the sins of his past, and driven by a fate that may be nothing more than myth, Elrik descends into a realm where reality bends, time bleeds, and death is no longer the end.As his brothers fall to madness, eldritch corruption, and unspeakable horrors, Elrik clings to faith. But what does faith mean in a place abandoned by God? Echoes of the Dreamer is the first volume of a dark historical fantasy series steeped in medieval horror, cosmic dread, and the unraveling of the human soul. For fans of The Black Company, The Call of Cthulhu, and Berserk.
