Hubris tells the story of Crowe, a young practitioner on a great journey to find Monad, to free his people from enslavement. Along the way he encounters Barghast, an eight foot tall wolfman, the lycan who has left his clan in the desert for a life in the North. Separated by culture and language but linked together by an unbreakable bond, the two lost souls forge a blood-soaked path through an ugly world.
