How do you defend a city surrounded by enemies and full of traitors when your allies are unreliable and your predecessor has mysteriously vanished? All of this is enough to make a tormentor want to take to his heels... and probably that’s exactly what Inquisitor Glokta would do - if he could walk without a cane. But now he is called to find the answers he seeks before the army of Gurkul knocks on his door.
The Northmen have poured into Angland and are distributing death in the frozen province of the Union. The Crowned Prince Ladisla is determined to drive them back and achieve eternal glory. There is only one problem: his army is the worst ever seen in the history of war. And Bayaz, the First of the Magi, leads a group of daring explorers on a mission through the ruins of the past.
The most hated woman of the South, the most terrifying man of the North, and the greatest egotist young man of the Union form a strange but dangerous team - if only they didn’t hate each other so much. Ancient secrets will be revealed. Bloody battles will be fought and lost. And hated enemies will receive forgiveness - but not before they find themselves on the gallows...
“The best example of contemporary fantasy literature.” (SFX) “An exciting premise, complex characters, and subterranean humor. It’s not an ordinary book.” (Deathray) “There is a savagery in its world and an awareness of the cost of violence that is extraordinarily modern.” (The Times) “Abercrombie has written the best fantasy trilogy of recent years. He’s an author you must not miss.” (Junot Diaz, Pulitzer Prize-winning author)
