Description

Noticeably bold in scope, unique in its understanding, with figures engrossingly and strongly drawn, the very first guide in R. Scott Bakker's Prince of Nothing collection produces an amazing world from entire cloth—it's vocabulary and classes of individuals, its towns, beliefs, secrets, taboos, and rituals—the type of all embracing galaxy that's delighted visitors of Stephen R Donaldson and George R.R. Martin.It's a world damaged by an acopalyptic past, evoking a period equally two thousand years past and two thousand years in to the future, as unknown hundreds assemble for a campaign. Going included in this, two ladies and two men are trapped with a strange visitor, Anasurimbor Kellhus—part soldier, part philosopher, part sorcerous, charming presence—from countries long believed dead.
