He was a warrior. Now he can’t feel his legs.
Miles knows what he lost. He felt it the moment that sword came down. The life he’d built, the fighter he was, the future he’d planned.
Now he lies in a borrowed room, willing his toes to move and refusing the draught that would numb the pain.
Because pain means something is still there. And where there is something, there is hope.
When feeling begins to return, Miles makes a decision. He leaves the safety of Dr Viktor’s house and travels east, alone, on foot, through the dead forest, toward Battleacre, the training grounds of the Queen’s Guard.
The dream he thought was finished.
But the road east has other plans. A chance encounter at a roadside inn pulls Miles into a world of shadows, fangs, and a mysterious figure known only as the Soldier. A man who fights like no one Miles has ever seen, and who seems to know exactly who Miles is.
What does the Soldier want with a disabled man on a desperate journey?
Miles and the Soldier is the second book in The Acre Series, a gritty dark fantasy about recovery, resilience, and what it truly means to become a warrior.
Perfect for fans of found family, unlikely mentors, and heroes who refuse to stay down.
