It is 200 years since the deity known as the Absolved went mad and destroyed the Kingdom of Alnachim, transforming it into the Execration, a blasted wasteland filled with nameless terrors.

Now a veteran warrior known only as Pilgrim, armed with a fabled blade inhabited by the soul of a taunting demon, must join with six others to make the last journey to the heart of the Execration.

As the secrets of the Rhydarian Emperor unravel, an assassination sparks a shift in a realm dominated by those who wield rare magical weapons. While the threat of the Volurem—the Empire's lifelong enemy—presses down on them, Shylo is falsely accused of murder and treason. He and a group of unsuspecting allies must work together to escape the Empire's wrath. Follow their tale as Shylo and company unravel a thread that will lead them to the devastating secrets behind the Emperor's Fate.
Publisher's Summary
Times have changed for Alwyn Scribe. Once an outlaw, he's now a spymaster and sworn protector of Lady Evadine Courlain, whose visions of a demonic apocalypse have earned her the fanatical devotion of the faithful.
Yet Evadine's growing fame has put her at odds with both Crown and Covenant. As trouble brews in the kingdom, both seek to exploit her position for their own ends.
Sent to the Duchy of Alundia to put down a rebellion, Alwyn must rely on old instincts to fight for his new cause. Deadly feuds and ancient secrets are laid bare as war erupts, a war that will decide the fate of the Kingdom of Albermaine and, perhaps, prevent the coming of the prophesied Second Scourge.
The Martyr is the sequel to The Pariah and continues the ruthless and gripping fantasy epic from New York Times bestseller Anthony Ryan, whose books have sold more than a million copies worldwide.

Simply bloody awesome
But from Anthony Ryan one would expect no less. Don’t dither or equivocate, just download it and the first book, The Pariah. While you’re at it, download all his books. Anthony Ryan is a f’ing master.
