Samstag, fünf Uhr morgens. Eine laue Mainacht, wolkenloser Himmel. Es würde ein schöner, sonniger Tag werden, genauso ein Tag, wie ihn die Londoner nach den langen, kalten Regenperioden des Winters brauchten. London, Stadtteil Kenton, Haus Nummer 17. An der Tür war ein blankgeputztes Messingschild befestigt, das zwei Namen trug. "Peabody-Neville". Eine Doppelfamilie, die in dem hübschen Haus ein ruhiges Leben führte. Die Familie Peabody-Neville plante wie Tausende andere für diesen Samstag nette Stunden der Erholung. Für Tausende anderer Familien sollten sich die angenehmen Erwartungen erfüllen.

In the first book, Hadjar lost it all. His body ruined, parents dead, and his title of Prince replaced by a slave collar. It seemed like Primus had deprived him of everything. But no one can take away a man's will to fight. Even if his heart turns into a bleeding stone due to endless grief and suffering, it won't matter. The most important thing was that he still had the will to go on. The thought of taking revenge on his family's murderers gave him the strength to survive.

Hadjar has seen everything that the Mortal Realm of the Nameless World has to offer. Beloved son, disgraced prince, brother, loyal friend, brave warrior, illustrious commander, murderer, traitor, devoted husband, monster . . . All these roles converge in Hadjar Darkhan, the Mad General. He has left behind songs and tales of courage and honor that have become the lament of the thousands who've met their end at his blade, their blood drenching the fields and valleys of the mortal regions. And he did it all so he could keep going, so his journey wouldn't end before its time.
