THE GUNS OF IVREA: Valdur Book One: 1 (A Tale of Valdur) - Tapa blanda

A merrily anachronistic adventure... Beal keeps the action balanced expertly with complex political machinations. --Publishers Weekly

Beal is a storyteller who can handle plot adeptly enough to create a hugely compelling narrative... Terrific fun. --SFX Magazine

A cracking piece of salty fun. If you're a fan of Michael Moorcock and Fritz Lieber, you will most likely love Clifford Beal. Addictive, page turning pulp. --Starburst Magazine

Acquel Galenus, former thief and now monk of no particular skill, indifferent scribe and even worse chorister, uncovers a terrible secret under the Great Temple at Livorna that could shiver the one faith to its core. A secret that could get him killed. A secret that could enable an older, more sinister form of worship to be reborn... Pirate princeling Nicolo Danamis, mercenary to the King and captain of the largest fleet in the island kingdom of Valdur, has made one deal too many, and enemies are now closing in to destroy him.
