The epic fourth novel of the Sword of Shadows fantasy series
In this powerful saga of redemption and renewal, J. V. Jones brings to vivid life the magnificent tapestry of a world at once desperately fighting for survival against supernatural monsters and rent by internecine warfare. The frozen land at the north of the world was once ruled by a legendary nation of superhuman warriors. But that age has passed, leaving ancient clans to struggle for dominance as supernatural forces beyond their control threaten their very existence.
Amid the chaos of world-changing violence, unlikely heroes emerge. An unwanted warrior, a forsaken woman of power, the betrayed widow of a slain clan chief: these are the heroes rising to claim what has been taken from them and to reshape the world.
In a sharply observed narrative that illuminates these riven lives, Jones has crafted a human drama full of the excitement, suspense, and sheer storytelling power that have made the Sword of Shadows a fantasy series that transcends genre to become a memorable tale of human striving and triumph that speaks to readers as have few others.
**
The fourth Sword of Shadows volume first synopsizes what has gone before, then jumps into the action. And action-packed is the word for this novel and series. The large cast of individuals and peoples, whose homelands, whether steppe, forest, or mountain, hold danger from ancient magic and current feuds, lives at a time of old truces breaking and sorcerous powers rising. Raif, a clan warrior exiled by treachery; Ash, a woman of power; Raina, widow of a murdered chief; and others continue their quest for safety and justice in a world coming apart. The story should certainly appeal to those who like fast-paced, visual action, especially if they enjoyed its predecessors. --Jay Freeman
