In the heart of the duchy Lublin, where the Hussar Order rules with sword and scripture, rumors spread of a noble child born under a dark omen. Whispers of deformity and curse ignite fear in the streets, and fear is the most dangerous weapon of all.
Brother Pawel, weary knight of the Order and veteran of countless investigations, knows too well that superstition is rarely the truth... but it always bleeds like it. Called to the Lipski dynasty stronghold, he must uncover whether the child's fate is marked by heaven, or by men who profit from fear.
What begins as a tale of hushed voices and forged prayers soon reveals a conspiracy reaching from taverns to altars, from the gutter to the highest halls of power. Every clue drags Pawel deeper into a web of deceit where silver shines brighter than faith, and every step closer to a truth that risks plunging Lublin into fire.
Dark, atmospheric, and relentless, The Cursed Child is a gothic investigation set in the grim world of Naissus... where knights hunt not demons, but the lies men wield as weapons.
Markus Vasily Vikander is a fantasy enthusiast from Stockholm, Sweden, with a lifelong passion for history... especially the rich and turbulent past of Europe. By profession he has worked in sales, but his heart has always belonged to the worlds of myth and imagination.
His love for the genre began when his father first read The Lord of the Rings aloud to him as a child, and he has been writing stories ever since his school days.

Outside of writing, he collects historical swords and takes part in Sweden's annual Medieval Week, often dressed as a Viking and selling mead horns! At his core, Markus is simply a devoted fantasy nerd who enjoys bringing the struggles and triumphs of imagined worlds to life.
