Summary

Polvo de sueños es la novena y penúltima entrega de la saga  «Malaz: El Libro de los Caídos», la decalogía originalmente publicada  entre 1999 y 2011 que ha convertido al escritor canadiense Steven  Erikson en una de las mayores voces de la fantasía épica contemporánea.  Desde entonces, esta obra maestra de la imaginación está considerada una  de las series más ambiciosas del género de los últimos años.

En el continente Letherii, el ejército exiliado malazano, comandado por  la consejera Tavore, comienza la marcha hacia los eriales del este para  combatir por una causa desconocida contra un enemigo que jamás ha sido  visto. El destino que aguarda a los Cazahuesos es por demás incierto.  Nada saben del enemigo y la única arma que merece ser empuñada es el coraje.

En la guerra todos pierden, y esta certeza se percibe en la mirada de  cualquier soldado. El último gran ejército del Imperio de Malaz busca  una batalla final en nombre de la redención, pero quedan por responder algunas preguntas finales...


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

In war everyone loses.  This brutal truth can be seen in the eyes of every soldier in every world…
 
In Letherii, the exiled Malazan army commanded by Adjunct Tavore begins its march into the eastern Wastelands, to fight for an unknown cause against an enemy it has never seen. 

And in these same Wastelands, others gather to confront their destinies.  The warlike Barghast, thwarted in their vengeance against the Tiste Edur, seek new enemies beyond the border and Onos Toolan, once immortal T’lan Imass now mortal commander of the White Face clan, faces insurrection.  To the south, the Perish Grey Helms parlay passage through the treacherous kingdom of Bolkando.  Their intention is to rendezvous with the Bonehunters but their vow of allegiance to the Malazans will be sorely tested.  And ancient enclaves of an Elder Race are in search of salvation—not among their own kind, but among humans—as an old enemy draws ever closer to the last surviving bastion of the K’Chain Che’Malle.
 
So this last great army of the Malazan Empire is resolved to make one final defiant, heroic stand in the name of redemption.  But can deeds be heroic when there is no one to witness them?  And can that which is not witnessed forever change the world?  Destines are rarely simple, truths never clear but one certainty is that time is on no one’s side.  For the Deck of Dragons has been read, unleashing a dread power that none can comprehend…
 
In a faraway land and beneath indifferent skies, the final chapter of ‘The Malazan Book of the Fallen’ has begun…
