A tale of Sword and sorcery, daemons and godlings, and pitiful humans caught in the middle.
PLAGUE DEMON is the second of the three Warhammer tales narrated by Orfeo the minstrel, but it stands on its own without any confusion.
From back cover: "Do you think it's easy to be a hero? Averil said to him. "Do you think you can carry daemon-slaying knives without cost? Do you think that the curse with which the Lazarite tried to damn your soul is an untroublesome thing to bear, to be shrugged off like a little scratch? Harmis Detz, this entire nation is under a curse, and will fall to the forces of Chaos and the foul breath of plague unless we can save it."
In the wildest reaches of the Border Princes, the kingdom of Kjupris is thrown into turmoil when barbarian tribes descend upon its rich, fertile lands. Soldier of fortune Harmis Detz finds himself fighting more than mere human enemies when a curel twist of fate sucks him into a far more desperate endeavor--to find the real source of the evil that threatens Khypris. Can Harmis and his companions possibly triumph against such a foul and unnatural adversary as a servant of Nurgle, lord of pestilence?
