The Fae's Dagger (The Fae Series, #1)

Life has been a series of failures. His perpetually inebriated father proudly tells him that someday he will be just like him. His aunt, a shady gambling house proprietor, agrees and tells him to lose his name and leave his hometown and never come back.

Nameless and without a plan, his fortunes change when he finds an ancient fae dagger that kills with the slightest cut.

In a world of spears, swords, and powerful mythological creatures, no one fears a mere human and his dagger, but they should.
