**Winner of the British Fantasy Award for Best Fantasy Novel** The
first book in the award-winning Winnowing Flame trilogy. Epic
fantasy for fans of Robin Hobb and Jay Kristoff. 'Fantasy adventure
at its very best' Starburst 'Williams excels at eldritch
world-building' Guardian 'An original new voice in heroic fantasy'
Adrian Tchaikovsky The great city of Ebora once glittered with
gold. Now its streets are stalked by wolves. Tormalin the Oathless
has no taste for sitting around waiting to die while the realm of
his storied ancestors falls to pieces - talk about a guilt trip.
Better to be amongst the living, where there are taverns full of
women and wine. When eccentric explorer, Lady Vincenza 'Vintage' de
Grazon, offers him employment, he sees an easy way out. Even when
they are joined by a fugitive witch with a tendency to set things
on fire, the prospect of facing down monsters and retrieving
ancient artefacts is preferable to the abomination he left behind.
But not everyone is willing to let the Eboran empire collapse, and
the adventurers are quickly drawn into a tangled conspiracy of
magic and war. For the Jure'lia are coming, and the Ninth Rain must
fall... What readers are saying about THE NINTH RAIN: 'The Ninth
Rain was an amazing and captivating start to a trilogy; simple as
that. I have a really good feeling that The Winnowing Flame Trilogy
will become a new and long-awaited addition to my list of favorite
trilogies of all time' 'What a world! What characters! What
beasties! WHAT A BOOK!' 'I loved everything about this book: the
characters, the plot, the monsters, the twists and turns.
Masterfully handled and beautifully written'
