Songs The World Forgot

The world is haunted.
And the song has begun.

For twenty years, the ruthless knight Sir Ulthan Quire has hunted the surviving heroes of the legendary Battle of the Hope Tree. His vendetta has become an obsession, and his pursuit is about to set events in motion that will ripple across the Southlands.

Far from the ambitions of kings, Icarus Marbrand would rather live in songs than in politics or war. But when violence and betrayal shatter the fragile peace of his world, Icarus is forced onto a path he never wanted-one that awakens a strange magic within him known only as the Muse, a power that turns music itself into something far more dangerous.

Kalebra lives by the blade and trusts no one. A warrior shaped by violence and survival, she moves through the world like a storm waiting to break. Freed from the chains of slavery, Kalebra is a stranger in a land that still does not trust her.

At their side stands Cornish, loyal friend and reluctant fighter who refuses to abandon Icarus even as the world around them begins to fracture.

Together they are pulled into a widening struggle of knights, pirates, ancient secrets, and powers older than any kingdom. As enemies close in and loyalties begin to shift, each of them must decide what they are willing to fight for-and what they are willing to become.

Because some forces shaping Duskenvale have been waiting a very long time to awaken.

And some songs, once begun, cannot be stopped.

Songs The World Forgot is the first book in the Duskenvale Saga, an epic fantasy of friendship, violence, and destiny in a world where music, myth, and magic are deeply entwined.

The song has begun.
And the world remembers.

Songs The World Forgot delivers a new flavor of epic storytelling: Grindhouse Fantasy. Brutal fights, ruthless knights, haunted landscapes, and characters who survive by grit rather than destiny collide in a world where magic sings through steel and blood. Inspired by the raw intensity of grindhouse cinema, this is fantasy stripped of polish-fierce, fast, and unapologetically violent-where loyalty is rare, revenge is common, and every victory comes with a cost.

Perfect for fans of Joe Abercrombie, Robin Hobb, and Patrick Rothfuss.
