Arcane Mercenaries: Captain. Arcane Mercenaries, #1

Cursed magic. Mercenary blades. The war isn't over yet. Battle-hardened and weary, Grant Gwydian wants one thing-to end the brutal Mage Wars, even if it means surrendering his own arcane power. But when an uneasy ceasefire shatters with the assassination of a crown prince, peace dies in blood and fire. To stop a full-scale war, Grant and his elite team of rogue mages are thrust into a deadly mission: rescue the kidnapped heir and unravel a conspiracy before the empire burns.
Pursued by ruthless enemies and hunted by their own kind, Grant's mercenaries charge into hostile lands where treachery lurks behind every shadow. The church and the crown want magic gone, and the closer Grant gets to the truth, the more he realizes the battle lines are drawn in blood-not loyalty. Survival isn't enough. If Grant can't outfight, outthink, and outlast the forces hunting him, magic itself will be wiped from the world.
Steel meets sorcery in Arcane Mercenaries: Captain, a pulse-pounding epic of war, betrayal, and impossible odds. Perfect for fans of gritty military fantasy and relentless action.
