Description

New Entry in the Kencyrath Series.

SOMETHING IS PREYING ON THE GODS OF TAI-TASTIGON

A crucial moment draws nigh leading to the ultimate showdown between Jame Knorth and Perimal Darkling, the supernatural entity that has pursued James people, the Kencyr, across multiple universes, destroying all in its wake. But now news arrives from Tai-tastigon, the vast city that formed Jame into the master thief, wily fighter, and godling-in-the-making that she has become. The new Pantheon is falling, and the ancient city is in turmoil. The self-serving, beguiling demigod leader of the Thieves Guild has coerced Jame into finding the soul of his missing brother by holding hostage people she loves. Plus, it seems many in the vast Lower Town have lost their shadowsnot so funny when you realize that a shadow is cast by a soul.

DISAPPEARING SOULS

Some of the affected have gone mad. Some wander like ravening wraiths, attacking even family members by tooth and nail. Which means something is takingor destroyingsouls in the city. But whatever demon-wrought madness is afoot in Tai-tastigon will have to face the ultimate avatar of god That-Which-Destroys itself. That would be one Jame Knorth.

WHERE JAME KNORTH GOES, CHAOS WILL FOLLOW!
