A flintlock fantasy with a dark twist, 'The Worth of Scars' follows a collection of tragic misfits on a journey to destroy humanity’s ancient enemy, the Serafin. Yet only those with the powers the Serafin once gifted humanity can defeat them, a gift that was long ago tainted. Each of the company must now make a choice – is saving the world worth becoming one of the shunned, self-mutilating sorcerers known as The Scarred?​

​

Perfect for fans of 'First Law', 'Broken Empire', 'The Powder Mage', and 'A Song of Ice and Fire', the first entry in Gabriel Farrell's 'The Scarred Saga' combines ambitious, world-spanning epic fantasy with grimdark themes and an eclectic collection of richly drawn and relatable characters.
