THE SWORDSMAN OF VENICE - THE COMPLETE NOVEL
The Swordsman of Venice: The Complete Novel. Coming soon.
In Renaissance Venice, the deadliest weapon isn’t a blade… it’s a secret.
Angelo Mascari is a master swordsman whose greatest battle isn’t fought for crown or country, but for love. When betrayal strikes and the Republic turns against him, Angelo is forced into a desperate flight that leads him across the Italian peninsula and to the untamed jungles of the New World.
Across three sweeping parts in an epic saga, Angelo’s quest becomes one of vengeance, redemption, and unrelenting hope. Hunted by ruthless enemies and driven by loss, he must survive deadly duels, treacherous conspiracies, and perilous voyages to ultimately confront a single truth: is victory worth the sacrifice?
Blending swashbuckling adventure, supernatural intrigue, and richly detailed historical suspense, The Swordsman of Venice is a unbounded epic tale of loyalty and betrayal, of love that refuses to die, and of one man’s fight to break the chains of an ancient order before darkness claims everything he holds dear.
One man. One destiny. One legend carved in shadow and blood.
The Swordsman of Venice is a standalone spinoff of the Painted Souls series, perfect for both new readers and longtime fans.
"An unforgettable tale of redemption and danger."
- Gary McAvoy, bestselling author of the Vatican Secret Archive Thrillers

There are moments of humour, sadness and cheering on Angelo during the action-packed story. Painter of the Damned is out on the 25th October and I can't wait, especially after reading this brilliant novella."

"A page-turner from the dramatic beginning to the breath-holding ending. Superb writing, fast-moving plot, and complex protagonist on a twisting, tension-packed hero's quest. The romantic sub-plot transcends mortality while it adds a compelling dimension the main plot. Stellar work by a talented author."
