Thrall, the new heroic fantasy novel from Steven L Shrewsbury

Image: Thrall cover Seventh Star Press has recently announced the release of Thrall, the new heroic fantasy novel from author Steven L. Shrewsbury.

Set in an ancient world, Thrall is gritty, dark-edged heroic fantasy in the vein of Robert E Howard and David Gemmell.  It tells the story of Gorias La Gaul, an aging warrior who has lived for centuries battling the monstrosities of legend and lore.  It is an age when the Nephilum walk the earth, and dragons still soar through the air … living or undead.  On a journey to find one of his own blood, Gorias’ path crosses with familiar enemies … some of whom not even death can hold bound.

“Sometimes I think Steven Shrewsbury could very well be the reincarnation of Robert E. Howard, in a writing sense. As a huge fan of David Gemmell and Robert E. Howard, I can say with absolute confidence that Steven Shrewsbury is exceptional at writing dark-edged heroic fantasy.  It is not an exaggeration to say that Gorias La Gaul could one day join the heroic fantasy pantheon with Conan, Druss the Legend, and other legendary fantasy figures.  I can’t wait to read more adventures with Gorias in the future,” commented fellow Seventh Star Press author Stephen Zimmer. 

The Seventh Star Press editions feature cover art and additional illustrations from fantasy artist Matthew Perry. The limited edition packages feature the artwork in a special set of 5X7 glossy prints, a set of bookmarks, and a full-sized Gorias poster that come with every pre-ordered hardcover or trade paperback.

By the first week of December, the book will be available in hardcover, trade paperback, and several eBook formats, for owners of the Kindle, the iPad, the Nook, Sony eReaders, and other compatible electronic reading devices.
