This heart-pounding sequel in the grimdark Seven Forges saga sees enemies new and old, human and inhuman, converge on the crumbling Empire of Fellein

The Empire of Fellein is in mourning. The Emperor is dead, and the armies of the empire have grown soft. Merros Dulver, their newly-appointed—and somewhat reluctant—commander, has been tasked with preparing them to fight the most savage enemy the world has yet seen.
 
Meanwhile, a perpetual storm ravages the Blasted Lands, and a new threat is about to arise. The Broken are coming—and with them, only Death.
