Description
Several years after the terrible events of the march known as the Chain of Dogs, the destinies of the empire and its enemies begin moving once again. In Genabackis, three wild raiders descend from the northern mountains, intent on looting, killing and spreading destruction among the despised inhabitants of the lowlands. The young warrior Karsa Orlong thirsts for glory and admiration, but this expedition becomes something more: the first step on the path to his unexpectedly remarkable destiny. Tavore, adjunct to Empress Laseen, arrives at the last Malazan stronghold in Seven Cities and takes command of an army of twelve thousand soldiers. Most are inexperienced recruits, supported only by a handful of veterans who survived Coltaine’s Chain of Dogs. Before facing the dangerous forces of the Apocalypse lurking in the heart of the holy desert of Raraku, Tavore must turn them into a genuine fighting army. The desert’s heat does little to help their opponents, the warriors who worship the reborn Sha’ik. Waiting for the enemy is never easy, and a ruthless struggle for power erupts among the war chiefs of the Apocalypse, threatening the very substance of Dryjhna’s rebellion. Sha’ik herself, once Felisin Paran, celebrated and pampered, suffers under the knowledge that her greatest enemy is not the Malazan army but her own sister, Tavore. She does not realize that another major player stands behind the conflict, and that she is merely a pawn in his dangerous game. Thus begins another gripping chapter in Steven Erikson’s epic saga.
