    [synopsis] => Once protected. Once beloved. Until a blood blade brutalizes his sire... Young Caelan relishes the carefree days and friendships of boyhood despite his palsied limbs. He loves his aunt, the Lady Agace, who mothered him from infancy, and trusts his father, Lord Jekis, ruler of Castle Balazoron and proud to name Caelan as his heir. But when a cursed sword enters his father's possession, eroding Lord Jekis' sanity and prompting him to evil, Caelan's world falls apart. Caelan plots to get the weapon away from his father, hoping that might restore him to reason and kindness. But...what will Caelan do with the blade, if he succeeds? Hide it? Send it elsewhere? Break it somehow? As Lord Jekis' madness escalates, he grows ever more angry, clashing with his sister until a complete breach divides the two. When Lord Jekis decrees a horrific punishment for Lady Agace, Caelan must learn what it really means to leave childhood behind. If he fails, the only mother he's ever known will die. Blood Falchion is the riveting first tale in the Blood Blade fantasy series. If you enjoy high stakes, intensity, and the dark influence a cursed sword exerts over its wielder, you'll love J.M. Ney-Grimm's story of a once-beloved son rising to heroism in the shadow of his father's eclipse. Buy Blood Falchion to wrest trust from betrayal today!  About the Author J.M.
