Malazan Book of the Fallen - 6: The Bonehunters

Meer over het boek

The Seven Cities Rebellion has been quelled, and Sha'ik is dead, but one last rebel faction remains in Y'Ghatan, led by the fanatical Leoman of the Flails. The Malaz 14th Army, weary from battle, feels uneasy about besieging this ancient fortress, the site of Dassem Ultor's death and a significant Malazan bloodbath. The atmosphere is heavy with foreboding. Meanwhile, a more significant conflict brews as the Crippled God gains a place in the pantheon, leading to a schism that forces sides to be chosen. The rules of engagement have shifted dramatically, and the first bloodshed will occur in the mortal realm. A diverse cast of characters, including Heboric Ghost Hands, the possessed Apsalar, the killer Cutter, warrior Karsa Orlong, and ancient wanderers Icarium and Mappo, each seek to shape their destinies amidst divine interference. With tensions escalating, the gods are less inclined to show mercy. War looms, not just on Earth but in the heavens, with the ultimate prize being existence itself. This installment continues the epic saga of the Malazan Book of the Fallen, celebrated for its imaginative depth and recognized as a fantasy classic in the making.
