Bridge of the Separator
THE
NEW NOVEL IN THE POPULAR VIDESSOS SERIES
Rhavas was a good, holy, and pious man—and the
cousin of the Avtokrator. He would probably have become ecumenical
patriarch of the Empire in the capital, Videssos the city . . . if his
world had not suddenly and tragically fallen apart when the Empire of
Videssos erupted into civil war and the Khamorth barbarians swarmed over
the borders.
As the home he loved was brutally sacked, Rhavas
had to flee for his life, and then make his way through lands swarming
with fierce nomads and with soldiers loyal both to his cousin and to the
rebel. He may never see Videssos the city again, let alone preside in
its High Temple.
He has always followed Phos, the god of light and
goodness, Videssos’ god, and despised evil rival Skotos. Those who fall
off the Bridge of the Separator during judgment in the afterlife tumble
down to Skotos’ ice forevermore. But when evil seems to have swallowed
the whole world, what is a cleric who reverences logic as well as
goodness supposed to believe?
It’s a harder question than Rhavas wishes it were.
