Book Overview
On a rain-lashed cliff above a black and restless sea, a band of killers pauses between battles.
By morning, one of them is dead. Captain Sturmund has spent a lifetime gathering killers, outcasts, and broken souls into one of the most feared companies in the kingdoms. But no company, however fearsome, can wage war forever. Now their numbers are dwindling, age is closing in, and the glorious death Sturmund has always dreamed of refuses to come. The Beast may be the answer to his dark prayer. In the deep woods beyond their camp moves something vast and patient-an ancient horror bound to its killing ground and driven mad by the passing years. The Beast knows the earth beneath their feet better than they know their own hearts. Its strength defies steel, its patience spans centuries, and endless solitude has sharpened its hunger. After its first attack, Sturmund presses the survivors beyond the safety of the open hills and into a forest where the trails of men disappear. What begins as pursuit becomes a reckoning. As the hunt drives them deeper into the Beast's dominion, more than flesh is torn away: conviction frays, pride splinters, and certainty cracks. Long-buried histories reveal how killers, outcasts, and strangers became more than a company-how they became family. As grief hardens into obsession, the line between courage and madness begins to vanish.
The forest will test what their violence is worth. We Burn Our Dead is a mythic dark fantasy about brotherhood, violent legacy, fading legend, and the terrible beauty of standing your ground in a merciless world.
