Summary

La tempestad del segador es el séptimo volumen de la saga «Malaz: El Libro de los Caídos», la decalogía que ha convertido al escritor canadiense Steven Erikson en una de las mayores voces de la fantasía épica contemporánea.

En el imperio letherii reina el desconcierto. Mientras el emperador Rhulad Sengar, rodeado de aduladores y comisionados de su maquiavélico canciller, se precipita a la locura, los agentes secretos letherii llevan a cabo una campaña de terror contra su propia gente. El Errante, en otro tiempo un dios clarividente, parece ahora incapaz de ver el futuro. Las conspiraciones recorren el palacio y el imperio, manejado por corruptos e interesados, está al borde de una guerra sin precedentes con los reinos vecinos.

Por otra parte, la flota Edur se encuentra cada vez más cerca. Entre sus guerreros se hallan Karsa Orlong e Icarium Robavida, cuya mera presencia significa que correrá sangre. Pero una pequeña banda de fugitivos está decidida a escapar del imperio y salvar al emperador. Se aproxima un ajuste de cuentas y su magnitud será inimaginable.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The Reaper's Galeis the seventh volume of the "Malazan Book of the Fallen" saga, the 10-book series that has made Canadian writer Steven Erikson one of the greatest voices of contemporary epic fantasy fiction.
 
All is not well in the Letherii Empire. While Rhulad Sengar, the Emperor of a Thousand Deaths, spirals into madness, surrounded by sycophants and agents of his Machiavellian chancellor, the Letherii secret police conduct a campaign of terror against their own people. The Errant, once a farseeing god, is suddenly blind to the future. Conspiracies seethe throughout the palace, as the empire - driven by the corrupt and self-interested - edges ever-closer to all-out war with the neighboring kingdoms.
 
The great Edur fleet —its warriors selected from countless numbers of people— draws closer. Amongst the warriors are Karsa Orlong and Icarium Lifestealer--each destined to cross blades with the emperor himself. That yet more blood is to be spilled is inevitable... But a small band of fugitives is determined to find a way out of the empire and save the emperor. Fate decrees that there is to be a reckoning, for such bloodshed cannot go unanswered--and it will be a reckoning on an unimaginable scale.

Author Biography

Steven Erikson (Toronto, 1959), arqueólogo y antropólogo, es una de las mayores voces de la fantasía épica contemporánea, gracias a su decalogía Malaz: El Libro de los Caídos, una de las obras más ambiciosas y osadas que el género ha dado en las últimas décadas. Originalmente publicada entre 1999 y 2011, Malaz ha sido desde entonces definida como «una obra maestra indiscutible de la imaginación», capaz de labrarse un público fiel en las principales lenguas del mundo. Los jardines de la Luna, primer volumen de la saga, fue finalista del World Fantasy Award del año 2000. NOVA está publicando todos los títulos de la serie.
