Night of Knives

On the small island of Malaz, a once-thriving city now shrouded in secrecy and tension, an extraordinary event is unfolding. As the rare Shadow Moon rises, the citizens brace for impending danger from demon hounds and dark forces, while the prophesied return of Emperor Kellanved looms, igniting fierce struggles among factions vying for power. Amidst this chaos, Kiska, a young girl longing for freedom, and Temper, a weary veteran grappling with his past, find themselves pivotal to the impending conflict that could change not just Malaz City, but the entire world. This gripping tale expands on the rich lore established in Steven Erikson's acclaimed Gardens of the Moon.
