Ser Gold the Golden is everything a knight should be: beautiful, unbeatable, beloved by every peasant who's ever cheered his name. What they don't know is that Gold despises them, every fawning villager, every screaming fan, every soul who dares slow him down.

When the king orders Gold and his younger brother Silver to escort a condemned prisoner to the capital for execution, Gold sees it as beneath him, a tedious errand for a knight of his legend. But the road ahead isn't the simple march he expects. As secrets surface and the prisoner proves to be more than he seems, Gold's carefully polished reputation starts to crack, and so does everything he thought he knew about honour, brotherhood, and himself.

A sharp-edged fantasy for anyone who's ever wondered what their favourite hero really thinks.
