About author(s): Robert V.
But Kasralys, never conquered in 3,000 years, is about to face its greatest siege in history.
Only there can Kandri seek word of the lover who vanished one night without a trace.
Only there can the precious cure be deciphered.
Are they using the Prophet, or being used by her? Who, in this game of shadows, can Kandri trust? He knows one thing, however: they must reach Kasralys, great and beautiful fortress-city of the east.
Kandri is carrying an encoded cure for the World Plague, a disease that has raged for centuries--while far from the desert, certain criminals have learned just how lucrative a plague can be.
At stake is far more than the lives of two runaway soldiers.
Others, including Mektu, have become obsessed with a bejeweled dagger that seems to afflict its owners with madness or death.
Some of their fellow travelers worship the Prophet in secret.
But there are dangers even within their caravan.
This sprawling, lethal desert is the brothers\' last hope, for they have killed the favorite son of Her Radiance the Prophet, and her death-priests and magical servants are hunting them day and night.
But nothing has prepared them for the danger and enchantment of the Ravenous Lands.
The worst of rivals, the closest of friends, the two most wanted men in a war-torn world: Kandri and Mektu Hinjuman have cheated death so often it\'s begun to feel like a way of life.
