Falcon Pawn

The walls of Nakmoor had encircled Sevlow for less than a day. Already he had left his only living family, almost lost his pouch to one thief, been shot by a crossbow in an ambush, and was almost pummeled by a barbarian he would someday call a friend. All this and his quest had not even begun. Armed with only the knowledge that his decisions and deeds were of grave importance to the future of his world, he would have to learn to trust these two strangers who slept under this unfamiliar roof. For only with their combined strengths did this young trio hold any chance of surviving the game of the gods. Spawned by a college buddy's dare, Falcon Pawn is Matthew's first novel. It chronicles the adventures of Sevlow, Ivan and Ezilar as they find themselves pawns in a game of the gods.
