<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"First published in Great Britain in 2018"--Copyright page.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Desperate for the next <i>Game of Thrones</i>? <i>Prince of the Spear</i> continues the Sunsurge Quartet and delivers a full-on fix of epic fantasy.</b> <p/> The unthinkable has happened. With the Leviathan Bridge critically damaged and its towers unable to control the skies between Yuros and Antiopia, the East has invaded the West. A vast windfleet, constructed in secret, is winging across the Pontic Sea <p/><b>The holy Shihad has begun.</b><br><b></b><br>The Rondian Empire is divided and weak. Empress Lyra has barely survived a coup, triggered by a masked cabal whose members still remain concealed in the highest echelons of her court. Only Lyra's secret affinity to the heretical power of dwyma saved her - but that affinity is also her most dangerous weakness. <p/> As empires clash, lives are torn apart and long-held beliefs are overthrown by circumstance and desperation. A young queen whose court is riddled with traitors turns to the wrong people in her hour of need. Two princes clash in the skies, the fate of two nations riding on their skill. Two brothers must reconcile disparate cultures to regain their kingdom. An idealistic rabble-rouser sees a chance to strike. And a small group of dwymancers grope blindly for knowledge in a race against time before the masked Cabal strike again.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>I continue to be impressed</b> by the way Hair takes some very familiar, almost trite, ideas and spins them in a new way. <b>Epic fantasy is not dying my friends, it is just moving in new directions</b>--<i><b>Fantasy Review Barn on Unholy War</b></i><br><br><b>So epic</b>, that it gets you <b>so involved </b>and is such <b>an investment in time and emotion</b>, that there is a little sting of <b>regret that the ending had to come at all</b>--<i><b>British Fantasy Society on the Moontide Quartet</b></i><br><br><b>The sense of chaos</b>, endless politicking between factions and urge by characters to <b>make sense out of events </b>beyond their control is palpable as <b>the pace becomes more and more frantic</b>--<i><b>Upcoming4.me on the Moontide Quartet</b></i><br><br><b>Vivid, dynamic characters</b> and<b> terrific world building</b> . . .
