A Song Of Steel And Claw (arise The Darkness) (volume 1) [Paperback]

Abaddon has been defeated, but the terrible army he unleashed still prowls a land fractured by war. A new breed of warrior has risen from the rubble of the old empire to fight the menace: the Shar-hunter. Valia is a battle-weary warrior with demons of her own, yet she and her allies must overcome the gathering shadows while rulers squabble amongst themselves. For the enemy is changing, and the world is ill-prepared to face it. Old friends and new allies join Valia and Marlon as they struggle to understand the new threat from an enemy they believed to be all but beaten. And even as they do so, ghosts from Valia's past return to haunt her and threaten to throw the land into chaos once more.
