About This Book
Aryan's come home. But he's too late. All his training and all his skills can't change something that's already happened. As the guilt worms its way deeper into him, he leads the others from the ruins of Sceal out into the Wildlands as their quest begins.
Meanwhile, in the present day, Hallish is under attack. An army of walkers the likes of which Rechek has never seen is flowing down from the mountains, an unstoppable wave intent on striking the walls of the great city and pouring straight over them.
The friends are divided, but the screams of the dying drag them back to Hallish. But will they be on time? And what can they do even if they are? To Aryan, though, the attack brings hope. Because now he has proof. The Stone is still out there and still being used. And that means he can find it.
In the Southlands, a rebellion is stirring. The staunchly secular council is about to undergo the greatest upheaval since its inception, thousands of years ago. Leading the rebellion is Silivist, a torturer born to one of the great families. But changing the council is only the first of his many ambitions.
Assassin's Chant tracks the friends' journey from the Yard, through a decade of trials that brings them closer together, yet pulls them apart. From the peaks of the Mountains of Loss, to the deep caves of the Assassin's Guild, the walkers are never far away.
