Description
A generation after the fall of the Dortharian hegemony, the peace Raldnor won for Dorthar has begun to fracture—quietly at first, then with sudden violence. As old loyalties turn, new alliances form, and the machinery of power grinds through deception, kidnapping, and betrayal, a complex political struggle unfolds across the Lowlands and their uneasy neighbors. Yet beneath every maneuver and battlefield victory, something older and more inscrutable moves: the gods’ hands, shaping fate toward a war no one can fully predict. With Tanith Lee’s signature lyrical intensity and myth-haunted imagination, this novel blends court intrigue and epic conflict into a story about destiny, faith, and the cost of being chosen.
