Strife's Bane

Autor Evie Manieri
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 feb 2019
"I loved these characters." --Brandon Sanderson, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Words of Radiance on Blood's Pride
The dramatic conclusion of Evie Manieri's epic fantasy Shattered Kingdoms series boasting beloved characters, a fully realized world, and one final grand adventure
Once known as the Mongrel, Lahlil had only one purpose then: to reap blood and carnage for those who paid the right price. And though the ravages of past wars haunted her every waking moment, when Lahlil was called upon to lead the rebellion against Norlanders--telepathic and bloodthirsty invaders who conquered Shadari lands and enslaved their people to the mines--she delivered.
Then she ran.
Now, Lahlil must return to Shadar to save the person she loves the most and rebuild. What she finds first is a kingdom that has devolved to political discord, with an old enemy's ships sailing just beyond the horizon.

Strife's Bane pushes a grand cast of familiar characters to the brink of ruin. With Manieri's unique blend of magic, blood, and dramatic tension, the stakes have never been so high.

'I loved these characters, even though I knew it was going to hurt. Heart-wrenching. Poignant. Lovely' - Brandon Sanderson

The final instalment of the heart-breaking Shattered Kingdoms series.

In the south, the Shadari rebels have thrown off their Norlander oppressors and are struggling to rebuild their desert kingdom - but King Daryan is about to discover a secret cabal that has been working against everything he is trying to do.

Lahlil Eotan has left her great victory in Norland behind her in the hopes of reuniting with King Jachad of the Nomas - before his transformation into a god separates them for ever. But somehow she's acquired a travelling companion in the form of one Rho Arregador, who won't let her forget her role in the Shadar's predicament or in her sister Isa's chilling transformation.

But Daryan is facing more than treachery and plague: an ancient enemy with unimaginable powers is sailing towards him, determined to claim his country and his people as her own.

'Inventive . . . absorbing and rewarding' - Kirkus on The Shattered Kingdoms

Recenzii

I loved these characters, even though I knew it was going to hurt. Heart-wrenching. Poignant. Lovely
Inventive . . . absorbing and rewarding
The suspense, character development, and worldbuilding are all superior, and the ominous tone of the opening is sustained throughout
Superb
Intrigue, betrayal and old rivalries play out against the fires of revolution. Hang on for a wild ride!
A remarkable feat for a newcomer, and leaves me eager for the sequel, Fortune's Blight
Her ability to insert beautiful descriptions into an action-packed scene is certainly the mark of a talented writer and the series only looks set to become more exciting as the story progresses.
Picture the fluent prose and flawless world-building of an author such as Trudi Canavan combined with the epic plot and character lists of an author like Martin and you won't be far off . . . Her ability to contrast beauty with brutality, hope with despair and love with hate will secure this novel as one of the year's finest
