The Paladin's Path - The Paladin's Path, #1

He has no name and no home, but the gods still call upon him. Nameless is a fighter from a small, desolate town. The only one to pay him any attention growing up was his friend, Aneilu Deggiry. But Aneilu has died and Nameless travels to the capital city of Kierwater to deliver the news to his family. There, the God of War charges Nameless with a seemingly impossible task: kill the queen, the one responsible for Aneilu's death.
To complete this task, Nameless takes on his late friend's identity and enters the ranks of the Paladins - an elite force of fighters trained to defend the crowned prince. There he meets the excitable Kres, the mischievous Jest, the serious Aon-Je, and the ethereally beautiful Cheka. His new teammates start to make Nameless question what he knew about himself and the world, and whether he should kill a corrupt monarch or help install a new one.
When the common people are in danger, Nameless uses his strength to defend them. But when a god threatens the prince, will that be enough?Book 1 in The Paladin's Path duology. ~95k
