Book ID/图书代码： 13160010B37797

English Summary/英文概要： After decades of warfare, the tribes of the Tiste Edur have at last united under the rule of the Warlock King. But peace has been exacted at a terrible price - a pact made with a hidden power whose motives are at best suspect, at worst deadly. To the south, the expansionist kingdom of Lether has devoured all of its less-civilised neighbours with rapacious hunger. All save one - the Tiste Edur. But Lether is approaching a long-prophesied renaissance - from kingdom and lost colony to Empire reborn - and has fixed its gaze on the rich lands of the Tiste Edur. It seems inevitable that the tribes will surrender, either to the suffocating weight of gold, or to slaughter at the edge of a sword. Or so Destiny has decreed. A pivotal treaty between the two sides nears - but unknown ancient forces are awakening. For the impending struggle between these two peoples is but a pale reflection of an altogether more profound, primal battle - a confrontation with the still-raw wound of betrayal and the craving for vengeance at its heart. War and confrontation, magic and myth collide in this, the stunning fifth chapter in Steven Erikson’s magnificent ’Malazan Book of the Fallen’ sequence, hailed as an epic of the imagination and a fantasy classic in the making.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： ‘玛拉兹英灵录’是由加拿大作家史蒂文埃里克森所著的一部长篇史诗奇幻系列小说。这部奇幻系列小说描述了玛拉兹帝国和其他诸国(如莱特)历史上的一段动荡时期。这部系列奇幻小说富含了大量的故事人物，(人类、神祇和非人类)，多向的故事主线，次要情节，主题和发生地。与大多数奇幻系列小说将一个宏大的故事主线分成几卷不同的是，‘玛拉兹英灵录’系列小说，主要由独立的故事线组成，每卷之间只有次要情节和一些故事人物继续出现。书中最接近故事主线的是一个被封印在玛拉兹世界并试图逃跑的，来自外星球的被称为‘Crippled God’的残疾神祇所策划的一系列阴谋。(Sandy)
