Description

What if you were imprisoned for all eternity? The House of Always is the fourth book in Jenn Lyons's epic fantasy series A Chorus of Dragons, which starts with The Ruin of Kings. In the aftermath of the Ritual of Night, everything has changed. The Eight Immortals have catastrophically failed to stop Kihrin's enemies, who are moving forward with their plans to free Vol Karoth, the King of Demons. Kihrin has his own ideas about how to fight back, but even if he's willing to sacrifice everything for victory, the cost may prove too high for his allies. Now they face a choice: can they save the world while saving Kihrin too? Or will they be forced to watch as he becomes the very evil they had all sworn to destroy? Continue the epic adventure with The Discord of Gods. Praise for A Chorus of Dragons: 'I loved it' - Lev Grossman, author of The Magicians 'A larger-than-life adventure story about thieves, wizards, assassins and kings' - New York Times

Reviews

What an extraordinary book. The Ruin of Kings is everything epic fantasy should be: rich, cruel, gorgeous, brilliant, enthralling and deeply deeply satisfying. I loved it -- Lev Grossman on The Ruin of Kings A fantastic page-turner with a heady blend of great characters, fast-moving action and a fabulously inventive magic system . . . I loved it -- John Gwynne on The Ruin of Kings It's impossible not to be impressed with the ambition of it all, the sheer, effervescent joy Lyons takes in the scope of her project. Sometimes you just want a larger-than-life adventure story about thieves, wizards, assassins and kings -- New York Times on The Ruin of Kings Lyons proves she is worthy of comparison to other masters of epic fantasy, such as Patrick Rothfuss, Stephen R. Donaldson and Melanie Rawn -- Booklist starred review of The Name of All Things Simply put: this is top-notch adventure fantasy written for a twenty-first-century audience - highly recommended -- Kirkus starred review of The Name of All Things Lyons is creating a complex and wonderful series that will immerse and delight -- Library Journal on The Name of All Things
