SynopsisThe third volume in Nicholls's critically acclaimed fantasy finds Maras Dantia drowning in war. Stryke, head of the renegade orcs, and his warband have found the long-lost relic they need--but still do not know how to use it. And, while they try to figure it out, enemies hunt them from every corner. Worse yet, the three sisters are close to forming an alliance that will overturn history. Time is running out to save the world. Nicholls's masterworks are the first to tell the story from the other side--from the point of view of the orcs, the villains of Lord of the Rings., "A wonderful piece of storytelling...with plenty of hairpin twists, crammed with...juicy battles and racing towards a carefully set-up conclusion that is both exciting and genuinely moving."-- SFX . Nicholls's masterworks tell the story from the other side--from the perspective of the orcs, Lord of the Rings ' villains. This third volume in his critically acclaimed fantasy finds Maras Dantia drowning in war... with time running out to save the world. "A...highly original saga."-- Lineone . "Wall to wall action, undercurrents of dark humor...gritty, fast-paced"--David Gemmell. "Fast-paced action...[a] nonstandard fantasy."-- Library Journal., War is drowning Maras Dantia. Stryke and his warband have recovered the five instrumentalities but now they must work out how to use them while there is still a world to save. And in the meantime they are being hunted from every corner and the three sisters are close to forming an unholy alliance that will overturn history. Full of action, with a pace that never lets up and a tongue firmly placed in cheek Stan Nicholl¿s epic trilogy nevertheless manages to hit home hard about religion, the way we treat the natural world, how we see those who are different from us. Praised by all the reviewers and by writers as diverse as David Gemmell and Tad Williams it is a major achievement in the genre.
