The Salt March

ONLY BLOOD CAN WASH AWAY TYRANNY

After six hundred years, the Mednohail Empire lusts for a dominion where the sun never sets. The Mednohail grow restless, ashamed of their loss against the Heokolon Empire thirty years ago. Fueled by insatiable wrath and a greedy thirst for salt, the Empire looks east once again, seeking to spread the scourge of its gods across the world.

Roused by a new age of steel and weaponized sin, General Brónmal leads Mednohail’s endless legions east. Driven by the rage of a brutal upbringing by a failure father, he takes up the duty for glory and penance, seeking to surpass his family’s legacy.

Unknown to the Mednohail, the Heokolon Empire is ready, waiting like a spider. In secret, it has prepared its perfect soldiers, hoping to end Mednohail’s reign of terror once and for all. With brutal discipline and weapons of glass, they ready themselves to cut down the Mednohail legions.

Yet, lurking in the darkness of the coming conflict, agents of old initiate a scheme centuries in the making, hoping to deliver the world back into the hands of a forgotten evil.

The Salt March is the gory first book in the Empire Fallen grimdark fantasy series. If you like flawed heroes, swords and sorcery, and bloody battles, then you’ll love award-winning author E.T. Gunnarsson’s dark tale of conquest.
