Torn by long wars, the continent of Genabakis became the cradle for a new bloodthirsty empire - the Pannion Dominus. The armies of the mysterious Seer capture city after city, literally devastating everything in their path. To resist them, the outlawed Army of Dujek the One-Armed is forced to unite with the sworn enemy of the Malazan Empire. With those who had fought the Malazans for many years: the nomadic Rhivi people, Caladan Brood, Anomander Reik and his Tiste Andi people. To complicate the situation, clans of ancient restless warriors, the T'lan Imass, are also on the move and threaten serious changes in the balance of power. In this crazy whirlpool of battles, intrigue and secrets, few know the nature of the real threat. About the one who is called the Crippled God. About someone who was once called here from an alien, hostile world, and has now begun his own game.
