![]() ![]() “The thoughts of all men arise from the darkness. What does it mean when they reappear? Will it fulfil a 2000-year-old prophecy? Is the Second Apocalypse looming? But even if so, in whom should Achamian confide? No one outside the Order believes in the ancient prophecy anyway, and among the few who might be interested in it in this snake pit of power tacticians, schemers and fanatics, the truth might be in exactly the wrong hands … Somewhat less obviously, the sorcerer Achamian, as an agent of his order, is on the trail of a mysterious and much more dangerous enemy: an assassin behind whom perhaps something worse lurks – the power of the “Counsellors”, long thought to have disappeared. Maithanet, the ruler of a thousand temples, calls for a holy war against the infidels – an enterprise that attracts a wide variety of profiteers and interested parties. Since no passion is more true than another, faith is the truth of nothing.” ![]()
