About this ebook

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “[Peter V. Brett] confirms his place among epic fantasy’s pantheon of greats amid the likes of George R. R. Martin, Steven Erikson, and Robert Jordan.”—Fantasy Book Critic

In this third volume in the internationally bestselling Demon Cycle series, humanity has found hope in the battle against demonkind, if only they can avoid going to war with themselves.

The night of the new moon, an army of demons rises in force, seeking the deaths of two men with the potential to become the Deliverer—the man prophesied to reunite the scattered remnants of humanity. 

Arlen Bales, the Warded Man, denies he is the Deliverer, but the more he tries to live as one with the common folk, the more fervently they believe. 

Among the desert tribes, Ahmann Jardir has proclaimed himself the Deliverer, forging his followers into a mighty demon-killing army. But Jardir’s rise was engineered by his First Wife, Inevera, a cunning and powerful priestess whose motives and past are shrouded in mystery. 

Once Arlen and Jardir were as close as brothers. Now they are the bitterest of rivals. As humanity’s enemies rise, the two must first contend with the most deadly demons of all—those lurking in the human heart.

It seems the author has such a low priority on the demons and the conflict that he has to have all the characters sleep with each other in great detail but when it comes time to face the demons it only takes a few chapters with summary's on the events at best. Compared to the first book where the demons either physical or personal had the priory this 3rd installment seems only to focus on how much the characters should or shouldn't sleep with each other. If you want human conflict talk about the daylightwar

Great series but you must start with The Warded Man and read all the books. Some are not ,numbered in the series so make sure you google them. There are 4 or 5. The Great Bizzare is one Im pretty sure.is shown as stand alone, but it is not, The Skull Throne is the most recent. Peter Brett has a wild and vivid imagination.

Story would have been great if the author is not a trying hard romantic. Too cheesy by half. 'Love you arlen bales" everytime you turn a page. Really!? Was it necessary? we got it the first time you know. The author sounds like a teenager with crazy hormones. Can barely finish it if not for my interest in the corelings.
