'As brilliant as its predecessor' SF REVU Bitter and merciless war
is coming to the frozen north. It's bloody and dangerous and the
Union army, split by politics and hamstrung by incompetence, is
utterly unprepared for the slaughter that's 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,
preparations are made to make the Gurkish pay for every inch of
land ... but a plot is festering to hand the city to its beseigers
without a fight, and the previous Inquisitor of Dagoska vanished
without trace. 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, to
the army of Eaters in the South, to the invasion of Shanka from the
North - but only if it can be found, and only if its power can be
controlled ...
