************************************

THE EMPEROR IS DEAD...LONG LIVE THE EMPEROR!

The fervent hope of the victorious rebels and the survivors of the uprising that liberated the City from tyranny is that the accession of Archange to the imperial throne will usher in a new era of freedom, peace and stability. If only that were so...

As the City struggles to return to something resembling normal life after the devastation brought on by the rebellion, word arises of a massive army gathering to the north. Its origins are a mystery, but it soon becomes apparent that its sole purpose is to destroy the City and all who live within its walls.

And while warriors go forth to fight and die on the battlefield in defence of their homeland, bitter family feuds, ancient rivalries, political and personal betrayals, and mindless murder surface within the palaces and corridors of power: it seems the City is under siege - from both without and within...

A third of the way in so many characters, so many different story lines it was just really very hard to get into. It's a far stretch from her husband's tales of heros , mystics a solid storyline with twists that ultimately made sense in the big ending reveal. I just found this read a confusing eclectic trying to be a cohesive story. Sorry Stella.
