The Great Ordeal by R Scott Bakker
The highly anticipated new novel in R. Scott Bakker's acclaimed Aspect-Emperor series
Terrifying and astonishingHere is world-building on the grand scale it should achieve. Here are emotions and stakes driven to a pitch that will squeeze every reader breathless. -- Ian C. Esslemont, author of DANCER'S LAMENT
The worldbuilding is once again top notch. Bakker's richly detailed narrative creates an imagery that virtually leaps off the page. The Middle Eastern setting of the western Three Seas remains a welcome change from the usual generic medieval environments found in most fantasy sagas... Indeed, Bakker's creations remain head and shoulder above all other SFF settings on the market today... A compelling read that sets the stage for everything Bakker fans have been hoping for for so many years! -- PAT'S FANTASY HOTLIST
