The dazzling second book in Bakker’s “exquisitely intelligent and beautifully written” (Steven Erikson) saga Praised by readers and critics around the world, R. Scott Bakker has become one of the most celebrated voices in fantasy fiction. The Aspect-Emperor trilogy follows on from the acclaimed Prince of Nothing saga, and The White-Luck Warrior is the chilling second book in the new series. Ruler Anasûrimbor Kellhus and his Great Ordeal march ever farther into the Ancient North, as his consort Esmenet finds herself at war. Exiled wizard Achamian, meanwhile, leads his own ragtag mission to the legendary ruins of Sauglish. Into this tumult walks the White-Luck Warrior, assassin and messiah both . . . In this ambitious volume, Bakker delves even further into his richly imagined universe of myth, violence, and sorcery. Praise for the work of R. Scott Bakker: “A fine example of the new anti-epic fiction at its best . . . This is one of the more brilliant pieces of writing that you’re liable to read for a long time.” —Seattle Post-Intelligencer “Bakker has been praised by fans and critics around the world for his thoughtful, complex and meticulously detailed world, his colorful and credible characters, and his deviously intriguing, action-packed plotting.” —Globe and Mail “One of the major-league fantasy releases of 2011, the highly awaited The White- Luck Warrior by Scott Bakker . . . Nobody can deny the powerful nature of those books . . . Overall [Bakker’s books have] enriched the potential of the fantasy genre quite a lot.” —Fantasy Book Critic There is no name for this war; men cannot reference what transcends the short interval of their comprehension. It began when they were little more than savages roaming the wilds, in an age before script or bronze. An Ark, vast and golden, toppled from the void, scorching the horizon, throwing up a ring of mountains with the violence of its descent. And from it crawled the dread and monstrous Inchoroi, a race who had come to seal the World against the Heavens and so save the obscenities they called their souls. suGGesteD oRDeR J u n e • o V e R l o o k 95
