The first book in The Soldier Son Trilogy, from the author of the
bestselling Farseer, Liveship Traders and Tawny Man trilogies.
Nevare Burvelle anticipates a golden future. He will follow his
father into the army, to the frontier and thence to an advantageous
marriage. Over twenty years the army has pushed the frontiers of
Gernia as far as the Barrier Mountains, home to the enigmatic Speck
people, who retain the last vestiges of magic in a progressive
world. Exotic and misunderstood, they are believed to spread a
sexual plague which has ravaged the frontier, decimating entire
regiments. Such beliefs will affect Nevare's military training at
the Academy, where he will experience injustice and foul play. But
his world view will also be challenged by his unconventional cousin
Epiny. And on Dark Evening, when the carnival comes to Old Thares,
it will bring with it the first Specks Nevare has ever seen...
