Description
Greymane hoped to escape his past. He opened a fencing school in Falar and looked forward to a quiet life, even though his friend Kyle wasn't exactly thrilled about life outside the Crimson Guard. But a former fist of the Malazan Empire can't just disappear, especially when the Empire itself has passed a death sentence on him. A new emperor sits on the Malazan throne, consumed by the humiliating defeat the Empire once suffered while trying to conquer the Korelri subcontinent. Yet, the solution lies in the dungeons beneath the capital, Unta. From buried history, the name Stonewielder emerges. Lord Protector Hiam, commander of the Korelri Storm Guard, faces the potential destruction of everything he holds dear. With a few remaining men and a crumbling Wall that has seen better days, he stands against an ancient enemy. The Stormriders have returned from the sea. Furthermore, a religious war threatens the land. The Cult of the Blessed Lady, which has fiercely resisted the Riders for millennia, is trying to wipe out its rivals. Chaos erupts, and a local magistrate, investigating a series of murders, finds himself at the heart of a much older and more terrifying crime—a crime that has stained the entire land.

Less politics than in Return of the Crimson Guard, which is a bit of a shame, but still another great read that expands the already vast Malazan world.
Méně politiky než v Návratu Rudé gardy, což je trošku škoda, přesto další skvělé počtení, rozšiřující již tak rozsáhlý svět Malazu.
