Forge of the High Mage (Path to Ascendancy, #4)

This volume develops and details the Malazan expansion into the Falari Peninsula region. Kellanved and Dancer, impatient with the slow and methodical consolidation of the continent of Quon Tali, are up to no good and embroil the Malazan forces in an uprising against the ruling Theocracy of Falar.
These priests have maintained power over all the many islands through the threat of their terror-weapon: the dread 'Jhistal'...
Here readers will discover just what this weapon is, meet a younger Mallick Rel and find out just how the Malazans took the region into their grip. View Less
