Hardened Steel: A Warrior's Odyssey (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798854723725)

Colonel Volodymyr Starkov wants only to serve the Russian Empire.

His cavalry unit remains mired in Petrograd undergoing endless training and performing lackluster parades as the Great War rages across 1915 Europe. Mired, that is, until Tsarina Alexandra comes to him with a mission: to save a group of indigenous people living deep within the Siberian wilderness from a marauding band of rogue Cossacks led by a sadistic and powerful chieftain.

Haunted by his own troubled past, Starkov assembles a small but loyal team, including skilled trackers from a local tribe, as they venture into the harsh Siberian wilderness. Treacherous landscapes, unpredictable weather, and constant threats of attack imperil their every step, but unexpected allies arise who may help them turn the tide - or betray them when they least expect it.

Starkov must confront not only a brutal warlord and an unforgiving land but his inner demons. Amidst the chaos and violence, he must set aside who he was and determine who he's going to become.
