SUMMARY
:
Savaged by the K'Chain Nah'Ruk, the Bonehunters march
for Kolanse, where waits an unknown fate. Tormented by
questions, the army totters on the edge of mutiny, but
Adjunct Tavore will not relent. One final act remains, if
it is in her power, if she can hold her army together, if
the shaky allegiances she has forged can survive all that
is to come. A woman with no gifts of magic, deemed plain,
unprepossessing, displaying nothing to instill loyalty or
confidence, Tavore Paran of House Paran means to challenge
the gods -- if her own troops don't kill her first.Awaiting
Tavore and her allies are the Forkrul Assail, the final
arbiters of humanity. Drawing upon an alien power terrible
in its magnitude, they seek to cleanse the world, to
annihilate every human, every civilization, in order to
begin anew. They welcome the coming conflagration of
slaughter, for it shall be of their own devising, and it
pleases them to know that, in the midst of the enemies
gathering against them, there shall be betrayal. In the
realm of Kurald Galain, home to the long lost city of
Kharkanas, a mass of refugees stand upon the First Shore.
Commanded by Yedan Derryg, the Watch, they await the
breaching of Lightfall, and the coming of the Tiste Liosan.
This is a war they cannot win, and they will die in the
name of an empty city and a queen with no subjects.
Elsewhere, the three Elder Gods, Kilmandaros, Errastas and
Sechul Lath, work to shatter the chains binding Korabas,
the Otataral Dragon, and release her from her eternal
prison. Once freed, she will be a force of utter
devastation, and against her no mortal can stand. At the
Gates of Starvald Demelain, the Azath House sealing the
portal is dying. Soon will come the Eleint, and once more,
there will be dragons in the world. And so, in a far away
land and beneath indifferent skies, the final cataclysmic
chapter in the extraordinary 'Malazan Book of the Fallen'
begins.
