Ferocious (Ferocious) [Piotrowski, Luke]

Author: Luke Piotrowski

A young man swears vengeance on the draconic warrior woman who laid waste to his entire village. But in order to claim it, he'll have to seek training... from the warrior woman herself.

To kill the monster, he must become one too.

The sole survivor of a ruthless massacre, a young man swears vengeance on the draconic warrior woman responsible. Perhaps out of pity, perhaps out of malice, she agrees to train him until he's strong enough to stand a chance against her. As time passes and they journey together across an inhospitable landscape, each finds themself changed by the presence of the other. When the time comes, will he still want to claim his vengeance? Will she let him?

Ferocious is epic fantasy on an intimate scale, a revenge thriller like no other, one that stirs the heart as it goes for the jugular.
