Kellanved's Reach
Author: Ian C. Esslemont
Publisher: Tor Books
ISBN: 1466868600
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 592
Book Description
The conclusion to Ian C. Esslemont's epic fantasy Path to Ascendancy trilogy--a prequel story set in the New York Times bestselling Malazan Empire series--co-created by Steven Erikson. The incessant war between the bickering city states of Quon Tali rages. So engrossed are the warring lords and princes in their own petty feuds that few notice that an upstart mage from Dal Hon has gained control of the southern seas. Kellanved could not care less about any of this petty politicking or strategy or war. Something other and altogether more mysterious has caught his attention and he - together with a reluctant and his decidedly skeptical friend Dancer - traverse continents and journey through the Realms. But this ancient mystery that has so captivated Kellanved is neither esoteric nor ephemeral. It involves the Elder races themselves, and more alarmingly, the semi-mythic Army of Dust and Bone. Surely no one in their right mind would be so foolish as to embark on a journey from which none have returned? Well, no one except Kellanved. Path to Ascendancy #1 Dancer's Lament #2 Deadhouse Landing #3 Kellanved's Reach At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
