The Assassin's Trail, a Heroic Fantasy Novel by Charles Moffat

The Assassin's Trail is a Heroic Fantasy novel by Charles Moffat.

The original first edition book was an anthology of short stories about the titular hero Wrathgar, but the second edition version is a novel in which the short stories have been reorganized into chapters and additional chapters added to provide more information about other characters in the story.

The central plot of the story is that the main character Wrathgar grows up with a bully called Muddenklaw, which everyone believes dies during the "Test of Manhood" at the beginning of the book. However Muddenklaw later turns up alive and murders a child and leads a group of monsters to attack his village. Wrathgar is then tasked with hunting down Muddenklaw and bringing back his head. Meanwhile Muddenklaw decides to join the Assassin's Guild...

And there you go, no spoilers. But if you want more just read the reviews on Amazon it currently has 4.5 stars.

Also this book is particularly geared towards people who love archery, and the author Charles Moffat has been an archery instructor for 12+ years and also publishes nonfiction in archery magazines. So he definitely knows his archery stuff, so if you're looking for a fantasy book with a realistic approach to archery, then this is a good book to read.

Moffat's novel is currently available in two formats.

The Assassin's Trail, Trade Paperback - $9.99

The Assassin's Trail, eBook - $5.99

The older first edition version is no longer available on Amazon.
