The world moves inexorably towards the final, apocalyptic battle that may spell the end of the realm of men, in the latest instalment of the acclaimed Sword of Shadows series.

The Long Night has begun. The Endlords and their dark army of Unmade prepare to unleash untold destruction upon the world. Every Sull warrior must step forward and fight, or risk the North falling into eternal darkness. Key to mankind's survival is the sacred warrior Ash March. But for Ash to realise her true potential as a Reach, and become the Sull's greatest weapon, she must keep herself safe as the perils that surround her multiply. Raif Sevrance has an equally perilous task. The exile must travel to the barren wastes of the Red Glaciers and recover the legendary sword named Loss. For Sull legend decrees that he who wields the Sword from Red Ice will bring terror to their enemies. But fulfilment of these goals may yet come too late. In the remote reaches of the Bitter Hills, the Endlords' minions have made a cataclysmic discovery: a crack in the Blindwall, an ancient and unguarded passage leading directly into the realms of men.

Book 1 of Sword of Shadows, by the Bestselling Author of A Fortress of Grey Ice

Ash, die geflohene Ziehtochter des undurchsichtigen Penthero Iss, erfährt endlich ihre Bestimmung; An ihr ist es, ein Zeitalter des Verderbens heraufzubeschwören, indem sie die Kreaturen des blinden Landes befreit - wenn es ihr nicht gelingt, sich der dunklen Mächte in der Höhle des schwarzen Eises zu entledigen. Der Weg führt Ash, den jungen Krieger Raif und den Waldläufer Angus durch ein von Clan-Kriegen und skrupellosen Mördern heimgesuchtes Land. Doch auch Penthero Iss hat seine Häscher bereits ausgesandt, um Ashs magische Kräfte für seine eigenen dämonischen Pläne zu nutzen...
