The Scarab Path (Shadows of the Apt, #5)

The Scarab Path (Shadows of the Apt, #5)

Ben Allen
0/5 ( ratings)
'THE SCARAB PATH' IS THE FIFTH BOOK IN THE CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED EPIC FANTASY SERIES SHADOWS OF THE APT BY ADRIAN TCHAIKOVSKY, AUTHOR OF THE ARTHUR C. CLARKE AWARD-WINNING 'CHILDREN OF TIME.'

ANCIENT POWERS ARE WAKING. . .

The war with the Wasp Empire has ended in a bitter stalemate, and Collegium has nothing to show for it but wounded veterans. Cheerwell Maker finds herself crippled in ways no doctor can mend, haunted by ghosts of the past that she cannot appease, seeking for meaning in a city that no longer seems like home. The Empress Seda is regaining control over those imperial cities who refused to bow the knee to her, but she draws her power from something more sinister than mere armies and war machines.

Only her consort, the former spymaster Thalric, knows the truth, and now the assassins are coming and he finds his life and his loyalties under threat yet again. Out past the desert of the Nem the ancient city of Khanaphes awaits them both, with a terrible secret entombed beneath its stones. . .

'THE SCARAB PATH' is followed by the sixth book in the Shadows of the Apt series, 'The Sea Watch.'




RUNNING TIME => 23hours.
