After decades of warfare, the tribes of the Tiste Edur have at last united under the rule of the Warlock King. But peace has been exacted at a terrible price a pact made with a hidden power whose motives are at best suspect, at worst deadly.To the south, the expansionist kingdom of Lether has devoured all of its lesscivilised neighbours with rapacious hunger. All save one the Tiste Edur.But Lether is approaching a longprophesied renaissance that it will take it from a kingdom and lost colony to an empire reborn and has fixed its gaze on the rich lands of the Tiste Edur. It would seem inevitable that the tribes will surrender, succumbing to the suffocating weight of gold, or to slaughter at the edge of a sword.Or so Destiny has decreed.A pivotal treaty between the two sides nears, but unknown ancient forces are awakening. For the impending struggle between these two peoples is but a pale reflection of an altogether more profound, primal battle a confrontation driven by a stillraw betrayal and a craving for vengeance.War and confrontation, magic and myth collide in this, the stunning fifth chapter in Steven Eriksons magnificent The Malazan Book of the Fallen a series hailed as an epic of the imagination and a classic work of high fantasy.
