For fans of The Witcher, Andrzej Sapkowski, and dark medieval legends. A cursed child. A weary knight. A city on the brink of fire. In the duchy of Lublin, whispers spread of a noble daughter born under a dark omen. Rumors of deformity and curse ignite fear in the streets... and fear is the deadliest weapon of all. Brother Pawel, battle-worn Hussar of the Order, knows that superstition is rarely truth… but it always bleeds like it. Summoned to the Lipski stronghold, he must uncover whether the child is truly marked by heaven... or by men who profit from fear. What begins with hushed voices and forged prayers soon reveals a conspiracy stretching from taverns to altars, from gutters to the highest halls of power. Every clue drags Pawel deeper into a web of deceit where silver shines brighter than faith... and every step closer risks plunging Lublin into fire. Dark, atmospheric, and relentless, The Cursed Child is a gothic fantasy novella set in the grim world of Naissus... where knights hunt not demons, but the lies men wield as weapons.
