    About this series

    The epic sword-and-sorcery adventure of the Bound Gods fantasy series comes to its dark conclusion in this thrilling story of a vibrant world whose fate lies in the hands of vengeful gods and bold warriors.

    The world has been plunged into darkness . . . and only the scheming priest Joros might be able to bring back the sun.

    With his ragtag band of fighters-a laconic warrior, a pair of street urchins, a ruthless priestess, and an unhinged sorcerer-Joros seeks to defeat the ancient gods newly released from their long imprisonment. But the Twins have champions of their own, and powers beyond knowing . . . and the only sure thing is that they won't go down without a fight.

    The fate of the world hangs in the balance as the Twins aim to enact revenge on the parents that imprisoned them, and the world that spurned them. The Long Night has begun, and the shadows hide many secrets-including that the Twins themselves may not be as powerful as they would have everyone think.

    Joros and his allies must strike now-before the Twins can consolidate their power . . . and before they are allowed to shape the world in their vision.

      To win the coming battle for control of the world and the mortals who dwell in it, the cunning priest Joros secretly assembled a team of powerful fighters-Scal, a lost and damaged swordsman from the North; Vatri, a scarred priestess who claims to see the future in her fires; Anddyr, a drug-addled mage wandering between sanity and madness; and Rora and Aro, a pair of twins who have secretly survived beyond the reach of the law. But the war is only beginning for these disparate warriors and victory is far from certain when the enemy is a pair of vengeful gods. As the bound Twins strengthen in force against their parents-the Divine Mother and Almighty Father-who exiled them, a shadow begins to spread across the land, threatening to engulf all in its wake. As deadly magic takes hold, the tenuous bonds tying these uneasy allies begins to unravel. If they cannot find a way to keep their band together, each of their lives-and the entire world-will be lost to the darkness, leaving nothing but the bones of the earth . . .
