Description

THE NEW NOVEL IN THE POPULAR VIDESSOS SERIESRhavas was a good, holy, and pious man—and the cousin of the Avtokrator. He would probably have become ecumenical patriarch of the Empire in the capital, Videssos the city . . . if his world had not suddenly and tragically fallen apart when the Empire of Videssos erupted into civil war and the Khamorth barbarians swarmed over the borders.As the home he loved was brutally sacked, Rhavas had to flee for his life, and then make his way through lands swarming with fierce nomads and with soldiers loyal both to his cousin and to the rebel. He may never see Videssos the city again, let alone preside in its High Temple.He has always followed Phos, the god of light and goodness, Videssos' god, and despised evil rival Skotos. Those who fall off the Bridge of the Separator during judgment in the afterlife tumble down to Skotos' ice forevermore. But when evil seems to have swallowed the whole world, what is a cleric who reverences logic as well as goodness supposed to believeIt's a harder question than Rhavas wishes it were.FANTASY ADVENTURE BY A BEST-SELLING AWARD-WINNING MASTERAt the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).Harry Turtledove is known for his historical fantasy and alternate history.
