Review by Library Journal Review

Regent Geder Palliako and the priests of the spider goddess are an unstoppable force sweeping the land, but all the victories and violence mean nothing compared to the woman with whom he is obsessed. This penultimate book in the series (after The Tyrant's Law) sets the stage for an epic finale. (c) Copyright 2014. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
