"Durst consistently defies expectations."-Publishers Weekly
(starred review) From award-winning author Sarah Beth Durst, a
standalone epic fantasy set in a brand-new world of towering
mountains and sparkling cities, in which a band of aging warriors
have a second chance to defeat dark magic and avenge a haunting
loss. Twenty-five years ago, five heroes risked their lives to
defeat the bone maker Eklor-a corrupt magician who created an
inhuman army using animal bones. But victory came at a tragic
price. Only four of the heroes survived. Since then, Kreya, the
group's leader, has exiled herself to a remote tower and devoted
herself to one purpose: resurrecting her dead husband. But such a
task requires both a cache of human bones and a sacrifice-for each
day he lives, she will live one less. She'd rather live one year
with her husband than a hundred without him, but using human bones
for magic is illegal in Vos. The dead are burned-as are any bone
workers who violate the law. Yet Kreya knows where she can find the
bones she needs: the battlefield where her husband and countless
others lost their lives. But defying the laws of the land exposes a
terrible possibility. Maybe the dead don't rest in peace after all.
Five warriors-one broken, one gone soft, one pursuing a simple
life, one stuck in the past, and one who should be dead. Their
story should have been finished. But evil doesn't stop just because
someone once said, "the end."
