<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Simultaneously published in Great Britain by Harper Voyager."--Title page verso.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>A powerhouse grimdark fantasy of bloodshed, ambition, and fate, <i>The House of Sacrifice</i> is the thunderous conclusion to Anna Smith Spark's Empires of Dust trilogy, which began with <i>The Court of Broken Knives</i>.</b><br>Marith Altrersyr has won. He cut a path of blood and vengeance and needless violence around the world and now he rules. It is time for Marith to put down his sword, to send home his armies, to grow a beard and become fat. It is time to look to his own house, and to produce an heir. The King of Death must now learn to live.But some things cannot be learnt.<br>The spoils of war turn to ash in the mouths of the Amrath Army and soon they are on the move again. But Marith, lord of lies, dragon-killer, father-killer, has begun to falter and his mind decays. How long can a warlord rotting from within continue to win?<br>As the Army marches on to Sorlost, Thalia's thoughts turn to home and to the future: a life grows inside her and it is a precious thing - but it grows weak.<br>Why must the sins of the father curse the child?<br><b>Empires of Dust</b><i>The Court of Broken Knives</i><i>The Tower of Living and Dying</i><i>The House of Sacrifice</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>All hail the queen of grimdark fantasy!<br>--<i><b>Michael R. Fletcher, author of Beyond Redemption on The Court of Broken Knives</b></i><br><br>An exciting new voice in dark fantasy.--<i><b>Scott Lynch</b></i><br><br>Anna Smith-Spark writes in a unique voice with such pace and veracity your imagination has to struggle to keep up with your eyes.--<i><b>Adrian Collins, Grimdark Magazine on The Court of Broken Knives</b></i><br><br>Captivating.--<i><b>Marc Turner, author of the Chronicles of the Exile series on The Court of Broken Knives</b></i><br><br>Exciting twists and turns...Spark keeps the surprises coming all the way to the end. --<i><b>Booklist on The Court of Broken Knives</b></i><br><br>Fierce, gripping fantasy, exquisitely written; bitter, funny, and heart-rending by turns.--<i><b>Adrian Tchaikovsky, Arthur C. Clarke Award winner for Children of Time on The Court of Broken Knives</b></i><br><br>Grim, gritty, and fast paced; with great battles scenes!
