Heroes will rise and gods will fall... The gods have broken free, in an inferno of magic and flame. Now they seek total domination, turning Erland's conflicts and divisions to their own dark purposes. Orsian is trapped in the dungeons of Merivale.

Outnumbered and outclassed by the imperial legions, his ragged band of warriors and mercenaries needs a miracle to survive. Pherri, torn from existence by magic, awakes in another world-a twisted mirror of the Erland she knows. Only by finding a way home can she hope to save the ones she loves. Erland's armies march once more, guided by the ancient malice of the gods. Bonds of family, love and loyalty will be shattered in an epic final battle that will echo across infinite worlds.

A must-read for all lovers of this genre. Loved, loved it!!!!!!!!!"" Goodreads reviewer ¿¿¿¿¿ ""Superb... I put R.S. Moule right up there with Tolkien and George R.R. Martin, in terms of the intricate world building and how gradually different narratives and characters come together in the overall plot... This is the best stuff I've read in ages, and I read a lot!"" Goodreads reviewer ¿¿¿¿¿ ""If you thought the first book of the Erland Saga was intense, you better strap yourself down tight... Like a hurricane bearing down on you... Perfect for fans of George R.R. Martin and John Gwynne. The writing, character development, and vivid battles will have you staying up until ungodly AM hours just waiting to see what happens next."" Goodreads reviewer ¿¿¿¿¿ ""My favourite fantasy series is A Song of Ice and Fire and although I've read some excellent fantasy since, it is hard to find something with the same ingredients, while still feeling original. The Erland Saga... has this same magic recipe and I am incredibly happy I've found it. Warring factions, awesome characters, plans put into motion, twists, turns and backstabbing, multiple character POVs coming together, creating explosive moments. And of course, a well thought out world with a great magic system and immersive storytelling."" Spells and Spaceships ¿¿¿¿¿ ""Political intrigue and manoeuvring, betrayal, assassinations, an interesting magic system, sweeping mountains, warring kingdoms, treacherous landscapes, and a diverse cast of characters with complex motivations... Must-read for fantasy enthusiasts. I can't wait for the next installment!"" @musings_marginalia_miscellanea ¿¿¿¿¿ ""I had a great time returning to this rich and complex world. Magic, war, betrayals, revenge and political maneuverings... The desire to know the outcome will have readers flipping the pages."" Totally Addicted 2 Reading ¿¿¿¿¿
