In the beginning, the Songkiller sang chaos into the fabric of the world.
Now, he's returning to finish his dark symphony...
Exton hunts for redemption at the throne of the immortal Songkiller who caused his mother's death. Journeying with a world-weary bard, a battle-hungry ranger, and a best friend who begins to doubt him, Exton aims to drag the Songkiller from his throne and sever his head...
But he's a thousand years too late, and more helpless than when he watched his mother die. This time, he doesn't get a second chance. No one escapes the Songkiller or his song of power...
The song that turns men to monsters.

Beautiful words
Inspired by master wordsmiths like Markus Zusak (The Book Thief), Patrick Rothfuss (The Name of the Wind), Leigh Bardugo (Six of Crows), and many others, The Songkiller's Symphony aims to deliver on both a plot and prose level.
