saga (after 2005’s The Warrior-Prophet), the Holy War army has finally
reached the gates of the holy city of Shimeh. The warrior-prophet, Anasimbor
Kellhus, learns that the Thousandfold Thought, a great “transition rule”
that promises to transform the two warring faiths of Inrithism and Fanimry,
offers the only way to bring peace to the world of Ewa and avoid a
Second Apocalypse. Amid all the bloodshed and battle, Kellhus continues
to respect his friend, the sorcerer Drusas Achamian, despite the conflict
that arises when Kellhus takes “the whore Esmenet,” hitherto Achamian’s
woman, as his consort. Esmenet’s wavering love between the two men lends
poignancy and personal depth to an epic story notable for its lack of
melodrama. A large and varied supporting cast of heroes and scoundrels
add further emotional realism. The Prince of Nothing trilogy is a work of unforgettable power.
Unabridged.
