The old ways are swept aside, and the old leaders with them, but those who would seize the reins of power will find no alliance, no friendship, and no peace, lasts forever. Orso struggles to find a safe path through the maze of knives that is politics, only for his enemies, and his debts, to multiply. The Breakers still lurk in the shadows, plotting to free the common man from his shackles, while noblemen bicker for their own advantage.
Unrest worms into every layer of society. But grievances must be nursed, power seized and allies gathered first, while Rikke must master the power of the Long Eye. But she still has all her ambitions, and no scruple will be permitted to stand in her way.įor heroes like Leo dan Brock and Stour Nightfall, only happy with swords drawn, peace is an ordeal to end as soon as possible. Savine dan Glokta, once Adua’s most powerful investor, finds her judgement, fortune and reputation in tatters.
Peace is just another kind of battlefield.
