Description
Tras interminables guerras, amargas luchas internas y sangrientas confrontaciones, incluso las tropas imperiales necesitan un descanso. Pero la obsesión expansionista de la emperatriz Lassen no tiene límites, y cuenta con el apoyo de sus sanguinarios agentes de la Garra. Tras el último asedio, el sargento Whiskeyjack y su pelotón de Abrasapuentes necesitan tiempo para descansar y enterrar a sus muertos, pero Darujhistan, la última de las Ciudades Libres de Genabackis, los espera. Es el objetivo último de la insaciable emperatriz. Y parece que el Imperio no es el único que codicia esa plaza: fuerzas siniestras conspiran dentro y fuera de las sendas mágicas, y todo indica que los propios dioses se preparan para la batalla.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
The Malazan Empire simmers with discontent, bled dry by warfare, bitter infighting and bloody confrontations. Even the imperial legions, long inured to the bloodshed, yearn for some respite. Yet Empress Laseen's rule remains absolute, enforced by her dread Claw assassins.
