Savage Blades — Joseph S. Samaniego

The bravest and best knights don't have a name. Famous knights die early deaths trying to make a name for themselves. Those type of knights aren't the type that you need protecting a village of peaceful fishermen. The type of knights you need are the ones with no names, no families, and nothing left to lose. Those are the ones that will do what it takes to defeat bandit raiders or die trying. When a peaceful village is suffering from raids from an army of deserters led by a ruthless man named Sancho, the villagers hire a group of veteran knights to protect them and teach them how to fight back. This group of knights, from different armies and past lives, join forces to use their unique and deadly skills to save the village. Famous knights, or those young pups seeking fame and fortune, need not apply.
