Publisher's Summary

A belligerent springtide!  

Being the most powerful wizard in the world can be a challenge....  

After defending his fledgling realm against the undead lord Gaja Katar all winter long, Count Minalan of the Magelaw faces a new threat in the spring: the Nemovort Shakathet, favored of Korbal, leading the mighty hordes out of the Penumbra. This time, Minalan faces a real strategist; one who drives his armies with purpose and efficiency. The road to war leads through Megelin Castle and the vulnerable lands to the south of Vanado. Old enemies will become allies, and old friends will become valuable assets.   

War, however, is not what is preoccupying Minalan; the knowledge of the end of the world is. As he broods on existential issues and debates with various goddesses and Alka Alon about Calidore’s fate, he must overcome his own fears and anxieties and impose order on the situation before everything goes into the chamber pot.  

The solution? Hire an Arcanist, a specialist in the obscure and trivial, to organize and investigate the many matters Minalan has to manage and bring them to order.

Great book

I love this series and greatly enjoyed this book. The only bad thing is the lack of a good editor, a number of things are out of order, otherwise it's great.

A story of epic proportions

This series of books holds many great stories of the underdog making it great with lots of magic, politics, scheeming, plotting and war scenes of epic proportions. The book is worth a so called read.... The only minor con I see, is the to list of things that could or would have dire consequences on the world, seem to keep growing but very rarely do you see one of them completed before another one pops up.

The Narrator has a unique style that I initially did not like but it grew on me through book 1, now I would no like to hear anyone else's voice for these characters as each has its own style and inflections.

In this book you will see another war, more betrails, artful majic, a bard of sorts, political plots uncovered, cows, cheese, another god and a mission launched to address some of those pesky world thretting events that I was talking about.

No spoilers here sorry... Read it to find out...

Loved book 12, wish the series were done so that I’m not painfully anticipating what’s next.
