Lamia's Bane: Kormak Short Story, #3

By William King

"The King of High Adventure," Starlog.

"Immediately convincing, classically brooding," Steve Tompkins, The Cimmerian.com.

To the world at large, he is a mercenary and assassin, a brutal killer with a deadly blade. In reality Kormak is a Guardian, one of an ancient order sworn to protect humanity from the servants of the gathering darkness.

The deadly lamia Melioth has returned to Ael Quoram, the ancient city she ruled until driven out by the Order of the Dawn two centuries ago. Now Kormak must brave the haunted ruins in search of her. He is not alone — a Shadow sorceress and a necromancer's army of the walking dead also seek the lamia.

Lamia's Bane is a 10000 word sword and sorcery short story.
