Contra Amatores Mundi: A Gothic Fantasy by Graham Thomas Wilcox
5.0

A short novella that packs a helluva punch.

"Hieronymus and Prospero are crusading knights, yes. Sort of my take on DnD paladins, if you will: rather intense, frightful dudes immersed in the sort of esoteric religious extremism you might expect from people who think themselves (literally) warriors of god. They command something we might think of as supernatural, albeit at terrible cost."

I spoke with the author here.
