Daemons and Shadows — M.H. Bonham

Demons and Sorcerers At seventeen on his first adventure as a mercenary, sailors pitch Shadowhelm off a boat because they think he is a witch. About to drown, a Fae rescues him when he agrees to find a Fae's pup in exchange for his life. But once on land, Shadowhelm finds himself the target of two evil sorcerers -- one who is driven mad by ghosts from his past. Can Shadowhelm prove himself a mercenary, or will a sorcerer's demons kill him first?
