“A massive and brilliant book, with Moon’s unsurpassed military and historical expertise very much to the fore.” Chicago Sun-Times
Description
Paksenarrion was the finest paladin her world would ever see. But Paksenarrion could never have become a fighter at all had it not been for he who had come before: Gird, the liberator, who taught his people that they could fight—and win—against their Mage-born rulers.
And after Gird came one more: Luap, Gird’s sworn follower and the king’s half-breed bastard. Riven by internal conflict, Luap dare not lie and cannot tell the truth, nor face the future.
