Additional information
by R. Scott Bakker (Author)
As the grand crusade of the Great Ordeal devolves into cannibalism and chaos, Exalt-General Proyas attempts to gain control of the lost Men--but it rapidly becomes clear that the lost Lord-and-Prophet hasn't given up. When Sorweel, Believer-King of Sakarpus, and Serwa, daughter of the Aspect-Emperor, join the Great Ordeal, they discover the Shortest path is not always the most obvious, or the safest. Souls, morality, and relationships are called into question when no one can be trusted, and the price for their sins is greater than they imagined.
