3Cruel men delight in doing dreadful things. God help the women and children. Galvan has just stepped off start, more accurately re-start. He's a man is possessed by a past which informs a limited future. He's resolute, prepared to intervene on behalf of the right thing, as soon as he figures out what that is. He has been away, two years spent outside Gardez on the far side of the Seat of the King. Well almost two years, until it killed him. Bethesda put Galvan back in the game, for now. While Galvan was gone, someone did terrible things to women he loved. Days Galvan makes boats. Nights he fights sleep. Sleep brings a repeating nightmare loop. He survives, others don't. Galvan rides the blast wave to perdition. Having died a bit, he's swimming for the surface, before the dark depths decide to keep him. In his wandering, Galvan is toyed with by the Serial Killer who killed the women. The killer is enjoying his torment. What could be more fun? Justice has long been put off. Vile things have done. A bill needs to be put paid. Rules are rules. Bad things have been done. Galvan's back. He might just do something awful. What more could one ask of a cold rainy day's read?
