Beastblade: Life (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798332702372)

The sword sensed his presence. It surged with power. It prepared for battle

When a deadly dragon and a mysterious, cloaked Death Warlock lay waste to his town and kill his only family, Gildan Trane is left with nothing. Seemingly all alone in the barren, sun-stricken landscape of the Initi Plateau, Gildan meets a curious mimic bird who leads him to a long-forgotten magic sword with unimaginable power. Chosen by the Beastblade, Gildan sets off on an adventure across the five realms meeting a colorful band of characters on his urgent quest to stop the evil of the Soul Reaper.
