Shadowbred: The Twilight War

By Paul S. Kemp

A new trilogy starring Erevis Cale: On the edge of a war that will change the face of Faerûn, the world finds that not all shadows serve Shade Enclave
 
In the wake of the battle, Erevis Cale and his companions—fellow Mask agent Drasek Riven and the half-human, half-demon Mags Kest—have settled into a more peaceful existence. But secretly, Cale is in turmoil. With his transformation into a shade nearly complete, he grasps at the last scraps of his physical humanity. More than ever, he is like the master that he serves.
 
But soon, fresh dangers are afoot. The goddess Shar has made the first move in her ploy to incite the Shadowstorm, a prophesied event that will reshape Faerûn according to her and the Shades' dark whims. As her agents sow the seeds of war throughout the realm, Erevis Cale and his companions—both old and new—must find a way to stop them in their tracks before the ancient Netheril empire can rise again.

Paul S. Kemp

Paul S. Kemp is a lawyer. That is bad. He is also the million-selling author of the Erevis Cale sword and sorcery series, and several Star Wars novels. That is good. Very good. He has appeared on the New York Times Bestseller list three times (twice on the hardcover list, and once in the mass market list). It’s a little known fact that Paul has maimed eight men and three llamas using only an unsharpened pencil and a stick of Wrigley’s gun. Now you know too. He does not hum show tunes. Ever. Paul lives in Michigan with his wife and twin sons.

A fair book with a fine story. Though I am not fond of dealing with the gods. On to the next one.
