Drenai Books in Order

At the fortress of Dros Delnoch, a vast Nadir horde bears down on a handful of Drenai defenders. Aging axeman Druss and reluctant hero Rek must hold six failing walls long enough to give their people a chance to survive.

Set generations after Legend, a mad emperor rules the Drenai with monstrous man beast Joinings and fanatical Dark Templars. Half breed Tenaka Khan and a band of outcasts plot a desperate rebellion to topple him before the empire is destroyed.

Waylander is the assassin who murdered a beloved king and plunged the Drenai into chaos. Hired to recover a stolen relic, he joins priests, warriors and children on a perilous journey that may offer him a last chance at redemption.

The Drenai empire has fallen and Nadir hordes dominate the continent. When a village girl is taken by slavers, young Kiall recruits aging heroes of earlier battles for a rescue that will test the difference between sung legend and harsh reality.

Now living quietly as woodsman Dakeyras, the man once called Waylander finds killers closing in on his mountain home. With his deadly daughter Miriel and old allies, he is dragged back into war as past sins and powerful enemies hunt them both.

Before he was a legend, Druss was a socially awkward woodsman whose wife was stolen by slavers. Chasing her across continents with demon haunted axe Snaga, he is forged in brutal battles and dark magic into the warrior the Drenai will one day need.

During the siege of Dros Delnoch, Druss tells younger warriors of an earlier campaign in the Nadir lands. Seeking healing gems for a wounded friend, he helps defend a sacred shrine against overwhelming odds and shapes the destiny of future enemies.

A prophecy says that when three kings die, demons will walk the earth again. With an unborn royal child marked for sacrifice, three aging Drenai veterans escort a fleeing queen through a haunted land while demon riders and traitor armies close in.

Older and wealthy, Waylander tries to leave bloodshed behind until ancient evils stir around the ruined city of Kuan Hador. Gathering an unlikely band of warriors and mystics, he is forced into one last, perilous attempt to erase the darkness he once helped unleash.

Trying to atone for atrocities committed under the Witch Queen, Skilgannon hides as a monk until violence finds his monastery. Forced back into the world, he joins Druss the Legend on a journey through civil war, hunted by assassins and inhuman Joinings.

A thousand years after his death, Skilgannon is resurrected into a future Drenai realm ruled by the sorceress known as the Eternal. With a reborn Druss at his side and his possessed blades in hand, he must decide whether to fight again or reject destiny.
