The eighth book in Steven Erikson's acclaimed fantasy series follows the city of Darujhistan, which is tense and full of foreboding. The Lord of Death, Hood, appears at the start of a dangerous conspiracy. The city is troubled by a murderer, past tyrannies are resurfacing, and assassins target the owners of K'rul's Bar. Meanwhile, in Black Coral, the Tiste Andii ignore the growing threat of a cult led by the Redeemer, a man seen as powerless against his followers' twisted beliefs. As events unfold, Hood's presence marks the beginning of a cosmic upheaval. At the end of this journey stands Anomander Rake, Son of Darkness, who returns to fix an ancient and terrible wrong.
