Description
When the gods return to claim their world, the Five Lands will fall, in this earth-shaking epic fantasy thriller from the author of Lost Gods. For centuries the Five Lands have been at peace, but now a nameless enemy is tearing apart their borders. When a young assassin, Neythan, is summoned to Sunam, he expects to help uncover the enemy, but is instead confronted with secrets from his forgotten childhood, all somehow linked to the ancient scroll he has always carried. As the invasion continues, and the supernatural forces responsible are unveiled, Neythan must learn the truth about the power that lies in his blood... before it is too late.

Micah Yongo is the author of two ancient Africa-inspired epic fantasy novels. His debut, Lost Gods, was shortlisted for Starburst Magazine's inaugural Brave New Words award, as well as a British Fantasy Award. When he's not writing he can be found lamenting the often rainy weather in his beloved hometown of Manchester, or hammering away at his day job in content design.
