Publisher Description
The final, apocalyptic chapter in one of the most original, exciting and acclaimed fantasy series of our time . . .
The Bonehunters are marching to Kolanse, and to an unknown fate. They are exhausted - an army on the brink of mutiny. But their commander will not relent. If she can hold her forces and their fragile alliances together, Adjunct Tavore Paran means to challenge the gods...
Ranged against Tavore and her allies are the Forkrul Assail. Their desire is to cleanse the world - to eradicate every civilization, to annihilate every human - in order to begin anew.
And outside the abandoned city of Kharkanas, thousands have gathered upon the First Shore. Led by Yedan Derryg, they are preparing for the coming of the Tiste Liosan - and a battle they cannot win.
It had long been known that there would be a reckoning, but not the true, terrifying scale of what was to come. For the Elder Gods seek to shatter the chains that bind a force of utter devastation and set her free. It seems that, once more, there will be dragons in the world...
And so begins the last chapter in Steven Erikson's extraordinary, genre-defining Malazan Book of the Fallen.
Customer Reviews
A series of mystery
An end to a series of twists, turns and characters which at times I have wondered what is going on. But each new book has drawn me back to follow the multitude of characters and now it is finished. It is a series which has brought much enjoyment over numerous years and the last book has been no less enjoyable than the first. It is sad that 2 series of books have come to an end in the same year, this and "The wheel of time" have been something to look forward to and enjoy. One author who will write no more but another who I hope will embark on another epic tale! Time to salute the Malazans and the author.
All good things come to a end...
And the malazan book of the failing is a great thing, detailed in every aspect with a story line that is both griping and follows form the very first page in the very first book. A work of genesis.
