Summary
the Malazan Empire captures the Free City of Pale. It attempts to conquer the city of Pale while overhead looms Moon's Spawn, a massive floating fortress and home to the Tiste Andii. Anomander Rake and the other Tiste Andii wage war on the Malazan army, triumphant in the end, but at great cost. Then, the Bridgeburners are dispatched to Darujhistan, the last free city state in the northern continent, while gods conspire and ancient beings are re-awoken to wage a war. Darujhistan trembles as humans, gods, demons, and a tyrant battle, while the house of the Azath re-awakens in the heart of the city.
