Synopsis

In a land reminiscent of medieval Spain, the once-unified Asharite empire has fractured into warring city-states. A notorious poet-soldier, Ammar ibn Khairan, and a feared Jaddite military leader, Rodrigo Belmonte, find their paths crossing amidst rising tensions. As a holy war looms, a skilled court physician, Jehane, navigates her own divided loyalties, caught between these powerful men and the fate of Al-Rassan.

About the author

Guy Gavriel Kay (born November 7, 1954) is a Canadian author of fantasy fiction. Many of his novels are set in fictional realms that resemble real places during real historical periods, such as Constantinople during the reign of Justinian I or Spain during the time of El Cid. Those works are published and marketed as historical fantasy, though the author himself has expressed a preference to shy away from genre categorization when possible.
