Description

Joe Abercrombie s Best Served Cold meets George R. R. Martin s A Game of Thrones in the final novel in Richard K. Morgan s epic A Land Fit for Heroes trilogy, which burst onto the fantasy scene with The Steel Remains and The Cold Commands.

Ringil Eskiath, a reluctant hero viewed as a corrupt degenerate by the very people who demand his help, has traveled far in search of the Illwrack Changeling, a deathless human sorcerer-warrior raised by the bloodthirsty Aldrain, former rulers of the world. Separated from his companions Egar the Dragonbane and Archeth Ringil risks his soul to master a deadly magic that alone can challenge the might of the Changeling. While Archeth and the Dragonbane embark on a trail of blood and tears that ends up exposing long-buried secrets, Ringil finds himself tested as never before, with his life and all existence hanging in the balance.

Praise for The Dark Defiles

A finale that displays all the purposefully hard edges and grim magnificence that made the first two volumes stand out. Kirkus Reviews

Morgan brings his mammoth A Land Fit for Heroes fantasy trilogy to a rousing conclusion. . . . Expect surprises and suspense, along with the usual derring-do and entertaining characters. Booklist

Praise for Richard K. Morgan and his acclaimed series, A Land Fit for Heroes

Bold, brutal, and making no compromises Richard K. Morgan doesn t so much twist the clich s of fantasy as take an axe to them. Then set fire to them. Joe Abercrombie

Morgan has taken traditional sword and sorcery tropes and given them a hard, contemporary kick. The anitithesis of the cosy fairytale, this one is for big boys. The Times (London)

A crisp stylist who demonstrates equal facility with action scenes and angst. The New York Times Book Review

A full-immersion experience, uncompromising and bleakly magnificent. Kirkus Reviews
