<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>They face a hunger that could consume the gods themselves From the depths of myth an ancient enemy has returned: the Plague People, whose very presence obliterates whole villages; whose terror destroys minds. In their wake, nothing is left of the people, not their places, not their ways. On the plains, the warriors and the wise of all tribes gather to confront the aggressor. Loud Thunder leads his great war-host south, even as Tecumet and Asman head north with the Sun River army. With Maniye Many Tracks, they plan to forge a new unity between the tribes such as the world has never seen. But will it be enough to stave off an oblivion that might devour even their gods? Their adversary's presence is like a wound in the world, and wakes all the old terrors and evils from the peoples' stories. But before they can deal with the enemies without, they must conquer their demons within. The Hyena and the Hawk is the third book in Adrian Tchaikovsky's epic fantasy trilogy, Echoes of the Fall, following The Bear and the Serpent.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>From the depths of the darkest myths, the soulless Plague People have returned. Their pale-walled camps obliterate villages, just as the terror they bring with them destroys minds. In their wake, nothing is left of the true people: not their places, not their ways. The Plague People will remake the world as though they had never been. The heroes and leaders of the true people--Maniye, Loud Thunder, Hesprec and Asman--will each fight the Plague People in their own ways. They will seek allies, gather armies and lead the charge. But a thousand swords or 10,000 spears will not suffice to turn back this enemy. The end is at hand for everything the true people know.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A brilliantly conceived and executed shape-changer Bronze Age saga featuring a heartbreaking heroine." --<i>Publishers Weekly </i>starred review of <i>The Tiger and the Wolf</i><br><br>"Tchaikovsky cannily leaves enough unfinished business to lure fantasy fans through many more emotional struggles and sweeping battles struggles to come." --<i>Publishers Weekly</i> starred review of <i>The Bear and the Serpent</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Adrian Tchaikovsky</b> is the author of the Shadows of the Apt series, which includes <i>Empire in Black and Gold</i>, <i>Dragonfly Falling</i>, and <i>Blood of the Mantis</i>, and of <i>Children of Time</i>, the winner of the 30th Anniversary Arthur C.
