The Crippled God

As the grand finale to the "Malazan Book of the Fallen" saga, "The Crippled God" plunges the world into ultimate conflict. Adjunct Tavore Paran leads her savaged Bonehunters on a desperate march towards Kolanse, driven by a mysterious purpose to challenge gods and prevent global annihilation, even as her weary army teeters on the brink of mutiny. Their path converges with the Forkrul Assail, an ancient race intent on cleansing the world of humanity through a cataclysmic war of their own design. Meanwhile, in the realm of Kurald Galain, Yedan Derryg's Watch prepares for an unwinnable war against the Tiste Liosan to protect an empty city. Concurrently, three Elder Gods conspire to free Korabas, the Otataral Dragon, a force of devastation, while the seal on Starvald Demelain weakens, portending the return of the Eleint. Alliances are tested, betrayals loom, and the fate of every civilization rests on the shoulders of mortals and ascendants alike in a final, world-shaping confrontation.
