Orlando says that the new series will appeal to new readers and longtime fans. « Step right in, meet these characters again for the first time – for readers like me who’ve been there on the ride, Aric of Dacia is both the man you knew at his core, but with twists that make him all the more dangerous, all the more heroic, and all the more vengeful. This is a man who’s warred for over two thousand years! Suffice to say, he’s got scores to settle! »
« Aric of Dacia walks the Red Steppe, the wasteland that sizzles and steams beyond the great utopias of the world, » Orlando continued. « There, his quest is both bloody and ever out of reach – the quest to reclaim his honor after centuries in the cosmic arena. Ever the deadly stranger, Aric’s only allegiance is to his quest, and there’s no shortage of monsters standing in his way. Spit up deep from a gash in the dirt are the Earthborn, humans reborn in toxic soil as mad berserkers and the supposed chosen rulers of the Steppe. But these mad men have never met the Man of War. »
