They task two of their most brutal clerics with hunting her down: preternaturally stoic Chono, and brilliant hothead Esek, who also happens to be the heir to the Nightfoot empire.But Chono and Esek are haunted in turn by a figure from their shared past, known only as Six. What Six truly wants is anyones guess. And the closer they get to finding Jun, the surer Chono is that Six is manipulating them all - and that they are heading for a bloody confrontation that no one will survive unscathed.One of the best SF books Ive read.
