About this product
Product Information
A bitter and merciless war is coming to the frozen north. It is bloody and dangerous and the Union army, split by politics and hamstrung by incompetence, is utterly unprepared for the slaughter that is coming. Lacking experience, training and in some cases even weapons the army is scarcely equipped to repel Bethod's scouts, let alone the cream of his forces. In the heat-ravaged south the Gurkish are massing to assault the city of Dagoska, defended by Inquisitor Glokta. The city is braced for the inevitable defeat and massacre to come, but a plot is festering to hand the city to its beseigers without a fight. Threatened from within and without the city, Glokta needs answers and he needs them soon. And to the east a small band of malefactors travel to the edge of the world to reclaim a device from history - a Seed, hidden for generations - with tremendous destructive potential. A device which could put a end to war, but only if its power can be controlled.Product Identifiers

What a great read
Loved this, great characters, believable storyline. All of the characters are deeply flawed but human. Immediately bought the other 2 books in the series. Also the 3 stand alone books set in the same world. Excellent.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

An epic quest on the lines of "Lord of the Rings" but with more flawed characters
The second book is much better than the first.The first book was mainly setting up he characters and there was far too much focus on Jezel preparing for a fencing competition .Only downside, the book cover was torn and falling to bits ,not like new as described.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
