A mercenary captain and his legendary swordsmen battle an unstoppable enemy!

Gustav von Altenburg and his elite mercenaries, the Greatswords, are called to defend a town in the shadow of the Harz Mountains. But upon arrival they find the town ravaged by disease and fear, with neighboring villages crumbling under relentless bandit raids launched from a nearby ruined castle.

But a greater threat looms. A ruthless army of Landsknecht mercenaries is sweeping through the region, looting and burning everything in their path—and now they march toward the town. Gustav must rally every man able to bear arms and prepare for a battle that will decide the town’s survival. With everything on the line, the Greatswords face their deadliest foe yet.

‘Forged in War’ is a swashbuckling tale of action and adventure by the Thomas Brothers, authors of the Iron Fortress, and ‘Craven’s War’, and tells a thrilling story of war, action, and love during the bloody wars of the 16th century.
