![]() ![]() ![]() At Sterre’s command, Ylfing begins telling stories once more, fanning the city into a mania for a few shipments of an exotic flower. That is, until Ylfing’s employer finds out what he is, what he does, and what he knows. But Ylfing has been struggling to come to terms with what his master did, with the audiences he’s been alienated from, and with the stories he can no longer trust himself to tell. Now Ylfing is all alone in a new realm, brokenhearted and grieving-but a Chant in his own right, employed as a translator to a wealthy merchant of luxury goods, Sterre de Waeyer. Three years ago, Yfling watched his master-Chant tear a nation apart with nothing but the words on his tongue. The follow-up to the fan-favorite A Conspiracy of Truths “reveals the author’s stunning prose, beautiful worldbuilding, and emotional detail,” ( Library Journal, starred review) and serves as a timely reminder that the words we wield can bring destruction-or salvation. ![]()
