The Book of the Jaguar

​The legions of New Serraña have a sacred custom: when a legionnaire falls in battle, a member of their company must bear the body home to the dead soldier's family. Álbaro Ceynos is the only surviving member of his company. He'd been garrisoned at Presidio Los Primos, known as the realm's safest assignment, until a fabled monster emerged from legend, crept down from the mountains, and laid waste to the old fortress.

Now, with one horse, one wagon, one sword, and all his slain brethren, Álbaro the bonebearer roams a decaying empire, bringing home his comrades' remains. As he meets an array of mourners who move him to question past choices and future commitments, he'll reveal how the tragedy unfolded, death by death, and how it is that he yet lives.
