History will end in a black bloodstain.Is that justice? Is this really what Tain Hu hoped for when she sacrificed herself?Baru's enemies close in from all sides. Baru's own mind teeters on the edge of madness or shattering revelation. Now she must choose between genocidal revenge and a far more difficult path?a conspiracy of judges, kings, spies and immortals, puppeteering the world's riches and two great wars in a gambit for the ultimate prize.If Baru had absolute power over the Imperial Republic, she could force Falcrest to abandon its colonies and make right its crimes.SETH DICKINSON'S short fiction has appeared in a variety of publications, including Analog, Asimov's, Clarkesworld, Lightspeed, Strange Horizons, and Beyond Ceaseless Skies.
