FEAR: The Chain of Varnhollow (The FEAR Saga Book 1) Kindle Edition

A prisoner walks out of a Cornwall jail expecting rain, disappointment, and another chance to waste his life. Instead he is met by the spirit of the first Judicier, claimed by oath, and torn across ages into 1142 AC on the haunted outskirts of Varnhollow.There, Callum Trevennick is stripped of everything ordinary and reforged into Fear — a grim holy antihero armed with Absolver, a sanctified execution blade from which chains erupt to drag the damned back to Hell. Guided by the ancient ring Vesper and shadowed by the brutal, deathly presence of the first Judicier, Fear enters a world where chapels answer wrongly, bells call up the dead, orchards burn with infernal memory, and false sanctuary hungers for weary souls.As the Book of Ash and Judgment marks his growth, Fear rises from Condemned Penitent to Chaincast Revenant, gaining power through suffering, sentence, and sacred violence.

By the end of Book One, Fear has not yet brought them home.He has done something worse for Hell.He has made himself known. Read more
