Description

In Northern Genabackis, a raiding party of savage tribal warriors descends from the mountains into the southern flatlands. Their intention is to wreak havoc amongst the despised lowlanders, but for the one named Karsa Orlong it marks the beginning of what will prove to be an extraordinary destiny. Some years later, it is the aftermath of the Chain of Dogs. Tavore, the Adjunct to the Empress, has arrived in the last remaining Malazan stronghold of Seven Cities. New to command, she must hone twelve thousand soldiers, mostly raw recruits but for a handful of veterans of Coltaine s legendary march, into a force capable of challenging the massed hordes of Sha ik s Whirlwind who lie in wait in the heart of the Holy Desert. But waiting is never easy. The seer s warlords are locked into a power struggle that threatens the very soul of the rebellion, while Sha ik herself suffers, haunted by the knowledge of her nemesis: her own sister, Tavore.--Barnesandnoble.com.
