'How strong are you? That's all that matters, you see. Your strength. Your ability to look on the face of Chaos and stay sane. That's how we're all judged, here.'
Star Shadow takes readers far back
in history, to a time when Chaos rules unchecked and unopposed. Benetan
Liss was snatched from his home village in one of the random culls designed
to bring new blood to the castle, where the sorcerer caste known as the
magi hold absolute power over the mortal world. Benetan is one of the lucky
ones; young and resourceful, he has prospered in the magi's service, rising
to become captain of the feared Chaos Riders. Despite the terrors and demands
of his work, he is loyal to his masters and devoted to Chaos's seven formidable
gods… until a new First Magus comes to power. For Lord
Vordegh is
far worse than a mere tyrant, and the obsession that drives him is one
in which sanity has no place.
Benetan has
little personal knowledge of the First Magus. But others do—in particular
Savrinor, the sly, intellectual, aristocratic and deviant castle historian who
for his own convoluted reasons has added Benetan to his small list of trusted
friends. Savrinor is only too well aware of the danger posed by Vordegh's rise
to power; not just to the ruling hierarchy but, potentially, even to the gods.
And no power ever created could sway Savrinor from his unswerving dedication
to the gods.
On the first bitter night of the new reign, the mask of compliance that Benetan
has worn for so long begins to crack. And behind the mask lies a road to
nightmare…
