A brilliant story of adventure, wit and philosophy from the origins
of the SPELLSLINGER series to enrapture devotees as well as
newcomers alike. New to the ways of the Argosi, the tribe of
wandering philosophers who seek to defeat evil by wit and guile,
Ferius Parfax encounters a hideous plague - the Red Scream. Highly
contagious, caught by the hearing of a deadly verse, it turns its
victims into mindless monsters that destroy all human life they
come into contact with. With the help of a deaf boy whom she has
saved from two horrifying victims of the plague, Ferius sets out to
find the source of the Red Scream and overcome its terrifying
power. Along the way she is joined by another Argosi, Rosie, who
purports to be so much wiser and more adept than Ferius, but who
turns out to have her own dark secrets. Peopled with extraordinary
characters and gut-wrenching drama, Ferius's story teaches her hard
lessons about the limits of the Argosi's ways. Readers will delight
not just in this amazing masterclass in plot pacing and narrative
drive, but in the seemingly bottomless well of wit, thought and
wisdom that the story brings up and that has changed lives across
the globe. It takes the reader on a journey like no other.
