A brand new epic fantasy from the acclaimed author of 'Across the Face of the World'.
Seventy years after the conclusion of the Falthan War, three great continents -- and their gods -- are again at war for truth and immortality.
Husk is the remnant of a once-powerful magician, defeated decades ago by the Undying Man, Lord of Bhrudwo. He lies, eviscerated, in the dungeon of Andratan, planning his revenge. There are three things he needs: the stone, the blood and a hand of hate. The three people he has manipulated from afar to bring these things to him are on their way... with no means of knowing what they are about.
But even Husk cannot know everything...
