The world requires a hero, but all it got is Breed. Departing the Empire to face the wrath of the angry demon and its own infernal hordes, Breed of dog takes a dispatch and flees to Shen. With pockets full of precious metal, the hammer of the Hammer of the North, a kennel of whiskey, and a conscience unburdened by guilt, life doesn’t get any better, does it? Well, yes, it can, but it gets a whole lot even worse first. No matter how fast Breed of dog runs, trouble is never significantly behind. Charged by a historical power to find a way to stop Shallunsard the demon, Breed of dog is thrust in one globe into another. Hold on tight, for here become krakens, dragons, undead queens, and vengeful sorcerers.
