Rebel Slave by Richard Davis

Broken by war. Enslaved by a corrupt queen. Imprisoned in a frozen Hell from which no man has ever escaped before…

Charles Raptor is a soldier, loyal and true. But after 18 years of fighting, he has one wish—to retire to a life of peace with a new wife in the country of his birth. But war isn’t finished with Charles Raptor.

Falsely convicted of a crime he did not commit. Torn from his wife and family. Sold into slavery to a tribe of dwarves. Condemned to a life of grueling labor in a prison, a thousand miles from freedom, run by a sadistic overseer who hates men with a passion.

None of this, by itself, could break him. But to see his wife in danger, her life hanging by a thread, while he remains locked in a cage…

To rescue his wife—to redeem his name—to reclaim his freedom, can Charles become the Rebel Slave that will give birth to a legend?

It was the greatest armada the world had ever seen. Its mission? Kill Charles Raptor.

First they enslaved him. Then they killed his family. Now, Raptor has turned pirate, bent on revenge against an evil regime.

Stung by his raids, they offer an amnesty. A full pardon. If only he will bend the knee.

Raptor spits in their face.

They dread the man. But they fear his legend more. Every day, Raptor inspires men everywhere to rise up against an anti-human empire.

An armada is raised. Hundreds of ships. Thousands of guns. Ten thousand mercenaries led by a ruthless monster.

And the chase is on. From the treacherous waters of the Turquoise Isles to the polar ice floes, the Armada will hound Raptor to the ends of the earth.

In the end, Raptor will have to choose. Submit, and lose his soul. Resist, and watch his eccentric pirate republic, the new family he has come to love, be destroyed.
