Crossbones & Crosses: An Anthology of Heroic Swashbuckling Adventure (Rogue Blades Presents #2)
Pirates & Crusaders, ahoy! Hoist your banners, unsheathe your blades, kiss your crosses, and search for booty across the seas and the sands! More of the age of steel than shot and no fantastical elements, this is a lineup of the strongest of swashbuckling historical adventures. Gritty, dangerous, and bloody tales of the past, realistic without being nihilistic. CROSSBONES & CROSSES kicks off with a rousing foreword by swashbuckling and sword-and-sorcery guru Howard Andrew Jones. This is followed by 3 sections of adventure: 7 tales each of pirates and crusaders, and 3 tales combining the two. Sections contain stories by current bestselling authors, up-and-coming authors, and classic tales from 1910. Epic verse and song round out each section of historical action. There’s never been anything like this. It’s a massive tome of piratical and crusading adventure you’ll be delighted to read!
“Exciting, well-written adventure stories with gripping plots. This is a quality anthology from top to bottom.”
