'ONE OF MY FAVOURITE FANTASY SERIES' GEORGE R. R. MARTIN 'GROUND-BREAKING' PATRICK ROTHFUSS 'TAD WILLIAMS IS A MASTER STORYTELLER' BRANDON SANDERSON 'AN ESSENTIAL PART OF ANY SCIENCE FICTION AND FANTASY LIBRARY' CHRISTOPHER PAOLINI 'Old cities and old stories were now part of his very life.

Following a brutal civil war, it is a time of darkness and dread for the realm of Osten Ard.
