Publisher's summary

The best-selling, award-winning author of Stiger's Tigers delivers the next action-packed installment in the Tales of the Seventh series.

Where a Stiger goes, death follows.

Stiger has survived the brutal ordeal at Fort Covenant, which saw his company shattered and an enemy army destroyed. The campaign season has finally drawn to a close, and Stiger is looking forward to the relatively quiet months ahead as the snow falls across the land and his company regains its strength.

Stiger is slowly being accepted into the legion. There are still some who seek to make him feel like an outcast. Can he ever prove himself, or will he bear the shame of dishonor to the end of his days?

Unexpectedly, he finds himself summoned to see the general. Stiger is dispatched on a critical mission for the empire. He must travel to the island kingdom of Thresh to deliver a message and a large quantity of gold. Despite the mission’s importance, it seems like an easy job: a march through friendly territory well away from the enemy and a short journey by sea aboard an imperial warship. He brings only a handful of men, including an elven ranger and a paladin of the High Father.

But before Stiger can even make it to Thresh, he stumbles upon a horrifying evil that has the potential to threaten everything, including the legion’s survival. Trapped and cut off from help, he must face this insidious darkness or die in the attempt.

Set amidst the backdrop of an epic war, there are greater forces at work than the young Stiger can begin to imagine, and he must confront them or all will be lost.

His path down the long road to destiny has begun.

A Dark Foretoken is set in the Chronicles of an Imperial Legionary universe.

Once again

Steven Brand has brought this author's stories to life for me again and again. This time was no different. I really enjoy the interactions between the characters, and getting a glimpse into what made Stiger the legionary office he is in the Chronicles of an Imperial Legionary Officer.

Great stories

love the Story Ben and Ellie
the way they have watch over one another. keep up great work.

Why

Why do we have to wait so long for more adventures??
Hopefully there are many more to come.

Great Series with an Amazing performance.

I absolutely love the series and the voice actors performance is splendid. My only issue with this series is how short it is.

Another good read!

Another good one from Marc, not a lot of wizardry or magic, but detailed stories of Legion life and some great battles!

more please!

cant wait for book 4! I love these earlier books following Ben Stiggers early years as a legionary officer. We get to see him grow and mature. I've read the other series enjoy the difference in thid from his more experienced and world wisen self in Stiggers Tiggers.

Great book

Great book, a wonderful continuation from books 1 and 2. I can't wait to continue with the Stiger series.

Continuing the Steiger Series and Doing it Well

A well-written and narrated book three in the adventures of a semi-Roman empire legionary officer. The setting is generally Roman during the expansion of the empire but is fictionalized to include a bit of magic, an elf, and a paladin in a fictionalized empire.
