GOOCHLAND, VA, UNITED STATES, June 13, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Fantasy fans, sharpen your blades and steel your minds. Independent author Gene
Herington is proud to announce the release of his latest novel, A Pawn in a Dire Game -- a bold and
immersive entry into the sword & sorcery genre, now available in paperback on Amazon, with the
ebook launching September 5th, 2025.
Set in a richly imagined world of political tension, scheming guilds, and lurking eldritch forces, A
Pawn in a Dire Game follows the troubled return of Pencheval to the capital of his kingdom. Lauded
as a hero for his role in a successful campaign, Pencheval is shocked to find himself punished by
his guild for failing to secure payment from the liberated lands. He soon finds himself entangled in
dangerous intrigues and a sinister, otherworldly entity whose motives and powers remain chillingly
unclear.
At the core of Herington's story lies a timely and resonant theme: the peril of focusing only on the
short term while greater, long-brewing forces move unseen in the background. Fans of fast-paced,
character-driven fantasy will find plenty to enjoy in this dark yet thrilling narrative.
