In this sword and sorcery tale, Tiberon strives to overcome the obstacles of a troubled past and keep his sister out of harm's way. Marauding orcs threaten the surrounding area and Tiberon steps up to the challenge of purging them from the land. Once the threat seems avoided, Tiberon moves on to help others in need. Along the way he meets several other adventurers; including Laucian, a soldier with a long history of dangerous trials and a thirst for arcane kwledge. Together, they would seem almost unstoppable if it weren't for an unexpected turn of events. The Swordsman is Book II in the From the Scroll of Alana series. Book I: From the Scroll of Alana: The Delve.
