The Raven: The final stand
NOT EVEN DEATH CAN STOP THEMThe Unknown Warrior has spent the last ten years mourning his dead - those of the legendary mercenary band, The Raven, who fell in battle. As the reluctant ruler of Balaia, he has also presided over the gradual recovery of his land after the devastation wreaked by the Demonstorm. The other survivor from The Raven, Denser, has spent those years rebuilding Xetesk to be the dominant college of magic.But something is wrong. The Elves are fleeing their homeland, as rumours of the dead coming back to life... of something that has so terrified the spirits of the dead that they are returning to Balaia. And amongst them are The Raven's fallen. The legendary band are together again - just in time to face a battle that cannot be won...Novels that you want to read again and again - David Gemmell
