Summary
The sequel to the award-winning Weapon of Flesh, Weapon of
Blood continues the story of Lad, a man crafted of magic and
flesh to be the most lethal assassin the world has ever
known.
A weapon becomes a person.
The Grandfather is dead, and Lad is free to live his life
as he chooses…as long as he chooses the Assassins
Guild, of course.
Lad’s job is to protect Master Hunter Mya, a
difficult proposition with a guild war brewing and death
waiting around every corner. Envious rivals plot to eliminate
Mya, even as the Assassins Guild Grandmaster seeks to promote
her.
Lad’s solace is his loving family. But the blessings
of love and friendship vie with the despair of fear and
doubt. And so much gained means that much more to lose.
Suspicion and betrayal abound as the Assassins Guild
factions strive for supremacy. Even Mya harbors secrets so
deep that she will kill to prevent them from being revealed.
Lad does not know who to trust, but that is not the worst of
it.
For, unbeknownst to Lad, he is no longer the only weapon
of flesh…
