Hachette New Zealand are delighted to announce the upcoming
release of Daughter of Blood, the first chapter of which was released on
SFsignal.com today. Daughter of Bloood is the long-awaited third
instalment in Dunedin-based author Helen Lowe’s David Gemmell award-winning
Wall of Night series.
A failing wall, a broken shield…
and an enemy that will exploit every weakness
Malian and Kalan are coming home,
but already it may be too late. The Wall of Night, dangerously weakened by
civil war among the Derai families that garrison it, is on the verge of
failing. Everywhere their ancient enemy, the Darksworn, is on the move as the
threads of an old pattern begin to tighten about Kalan, and Malian searches for
answers in the fabled Shield of Heaven, which every account agrees was broken
beyond repair.
In Grayharbor and in the Red
Keep, a child and a young woman are caught in conflict's maw, as whispers
gather around Dread Pass and a Darksworn prophecy points to Malian herself
being the stake the ancient enemy will drive into the heart of the Derai
Alliance.
