HekArtemis
Written on Feb 10, 2020
Weakened by events in Darujhistan, the Malazan Empire now teeters on the brink of anarchy. In the Holy Desert, the seer Sha'ik gathers a vast army around her in preparation for the long-prophesied uprising, the Whirlwind. Unprecedented in its size and savagery, it will draw the entire subcontinent into one of its bloodiest conflicts ever. A maelstrom of fanaticism and bloodlust, it will shape destinies and give birth to legends. In the Otataral mines, Felisin, youngest daughter of the disgraced House of Paran, dreams of revenge against the sister who sentenced her to a life of slavery. The now-outlawed Bridgeburners are determined to fulfil their vow to return the once god-possessed Apsalar to her homeland and to confront and kill the Empress Laseen, but tumultuous events will overtake them too. Meanwhile Coltaine, the charismatic commander of the Malaz 7th Army, will lead his batttered, war-weary troops in a last valiant battle to save the lives of thirty thousand refugees. Into this blighted land come two ancient warriors, Mappo the Trell and his half-Jaghut companion, Icarium, bearers of a devastating secret that is about to break free of its chains.
