BLOOD CURSE:
Married life has made Riven kan Ingan a love-struck fool, and he’ll be the first to admit it, but he refuses to be a cuckold when he returns from battle to discover his beloved Barbara pregnant with a child he couldn’t have sired. In a fury at her supposed unfaithfulness, he risks the wrath of the gods and sends her to her death, only to find himself driven from his domain by a deadly curse. Haunted by Barbara’s memory, Riven begins a quest to find the one who cursed him. When he loses his sight, he also loses his pride and must submit to a barbarian girl’s gentle mercy to free himself of the Blood Curse.
