The moon-eating serpent is coming.
Tasked to complete the seven blades, Makanas has traversed many lands, spending countless gold and waging wars. But when the last chief he has to face isn't blinded by gold nor fear the blade, Makanas employed his last weapon—deceit to infiltrate his household.
Just when he thinks his plan is going well, colonizers who now rule the land uncover the chief's traitorous plan. Lin-ay, the chief's secluded daughter awakens the blade to protect her family—something Makanas has trained for and failed.
To defeat the giant moon eating serpent, he must get Lin-ay to the bolo warrior village, but first, she must trust him.
Inspired by Bakunawa from Philippine mythology, The Chanter's Blade is perfect for fans of Shadow of the Fox.
Revered for the rebellion she led against the gods to save the earth, the Moon Goddess Bulan wants a body to possess and control.
The opportunity presents itself in the form of a girl desperate to usurp the goddess’s powers and use them to rescue her mother from Datu Dungog, a village chief who also wants the goddess’s power.
If Lin-ay gains the coveted powers, she can defeat the moon-eating serpent and rescue her mother, but will spend eternity as a shell under the goddess’s complete control.
Will Lin-ay rescue her mother and escape the goddess’s clutches, or will her daring mission cost her the only life she’s ever known?
