Magic is the most powerful force in the universe. Since time immemorial, the greatest of nations have bent this limitless force to their will. With it even the voids between worlds have been conquered. Nothing is free, however, and magic comes at a price. For now though the great nations of the world of Terrasti live in a time of unparalleled magical advancement and luxury. The Republic of Gloriana, beacon of liberty and freedom for all sapient life finds itself clashing again with one of its neighbors in a seemingly endless cold war. While their foes use fanatical might, the Republic has an ace up its sleeve. A small group of prisoner soldiers expected to fight, kill, and die for their chance at redemption. Taking the best of the best from the bottom rungs, the Republic uses this unit like a terrifying boogeyman that it can unleash at any time. This is the Lich Corps. Convicted criminal forced to don armor, pushed into unwinnable, suicidal missions, the Lich Corps is faced with only two options… success or death. To the nation they serve, however, they’re already dead. We Unhappy Few is the first novel of a planned ongoing series of dark fantasy that eschews medieval aesthetics and traditional wizards in pointy hats and farm boys for slick futuristic space-aged fantasy to take those well-trodden tropes and tries to let the fantasy part actually have its day. Join up with the Lich Corps, a ragtag group of murderers, thieves, and the insane in a character-driven story with fast-paced combat, exciting otherworldly locations in worlds with a past, shaped by not only magic, destiny, and warfare, but fighting nations on multiple worlds trying to claw their way to the top of the pile. When you step into the universe of the Lich Corps, nothing is really quite like you would expect it to be.
