The Malazan Empire simmers with discontent, bled dry by interminable warfare, bitter infighting and bloody confrontations with the formidable Anomander Rake and his Tiste Andii, ancient and implacable sorcerers. Even the imperial legions, long inured to the bloodshed, yearn for some respite. Yet Empress Laseen's rule remains absolute, enforced by her dread Claw assassins.

Savaged by the K'Chain Nah'Ruk, the Bonehunters march for Kolanse, where waits an unknown fate. Tormented by questions, the army totters on the edge of mutiny, but Adjunct Tavore will not relent. One final act remains, if it is in her power, if she can hold her army together, if the shaky allegiances she has forged can survive all that is to come. A woman with no gifts of magic, deemed plain, unprepossessing, displaying nothing to instill loyalty or confidence, Tavore Paran of House Paran means to challenge the gods - if her own troops don't kill her first.

The fate awaiting the Bonehunters is one no soldier can prepare for, and one no mortal soul can withstand - the foe is uncertainty and the only weapon worth wielding is stubborn courage. In war everyone loses, and this brutal truth can be found in the eyes of every soldier in every world.

The Seven Cities Rebellion has been crushed. Sha’ik is dead. One last rebel force remains, holed up in the city of Y’Ghatan and under the fanatical command of Leoman of the Flails. The prospect of laying siege to this ancient fortress makes the battle-weary Malazan Fourteenth Army uneasy. For it was here that the Empire’s greatest champion, Dassem Ultor, was slain and a tide of Malazan blood spilled. A place of foreboding, its smell is of death. But elsewhere, agents of a far greater conflict have made their opening moves.

In Northern Genabackis, a raiding party of savage tribal warriors descends from the mountains into the southern flatlands. Their intention is to wreak havoc amongst the despised lowlanders, but for the one named Karsa Orlong, it marks the beginning of what will prove to be an extraordinary destiny.

After decades of internecine warfare, the tribes of the Tiste Edur have at last united under the Warlock King of the Hiroth. There is peace - but it has been exacted at a terrible price: a pact made with a hidden power whose motives are at best suspect, at worst, deadly. To the south, the expansionist kingdom of Lether, eager to fulfill its long-prophesized renaissance as an Empire reborn, has enslved all its less-civilized neighbors with rapacious hunger. All, that is, save one - the Tiste Edur. And it must be only a matter of time before they too fall.

In the vast dominion of Seven Cities, in the Holy Desert Raraku, the seer Sha’ik and her followers prepare for the long-prophesied uprising known as the Whirlwind. Unprecedented in size and savagery, this maelstrom of fanaticism and bloodlust will embroil the Malazan Empire in one of the bloodiest conflicts it has ever known, shaping destinies and giving birth to legends.....

The ravaged continent of Genabackis has given birth to a terrifying new empire: the Pannion Domin. Like a tide of corrupted blood, it seethes across the land, devouring all. In its path stands an uneasy alliance: Onearm’s army and Whiskeyjack’s Bridgeburners alongside their enemies of old - the forces of the Warlord Caladan Brood, Anomander Rake and his Tiste Andii mages, and the Rhivi people of the plains. But ancient undead clans are also gathering; the T’lan Imass have risen.

All is not well in the Letherii Empire. Rhulad Sengar, the Emperor of a Thousand Deaths, spirals into madness, surrounded by sycophants and agents of his Machiavellian chancellor, while the Letherii secret police conduct a campaign of terror against their own people. The Errant, once a far-seeing god, is suddenly blind to the future. Conspiracies seethe throughout the palace as the empire edges closer to all-out war with the neighboring kingdoms.

In Darujhistan, the city of blue blue fire, it is said that Love and Death shall arrive dancing. It is summer, and the heat is oppressive, but for the small, rotund man in the faded red waistcoat discomfiture is not just because of the sun. All is not well. Dire portents plague his nights and haunt the city streets like fiends of shadow. Assassins skulk in alleyways, but the quarry has turned, and the hunters become the hunted. Hidden hands pluck the strings of tyranny like a fell chorus.

It's a conflicted time in Kurald Galain, the realm of Darkness, where Mother Dark reigns. But this ancient land was once home to many a power…and even death is not quite eternal. The commoners' great hero, Vatha Urusander, is being promoted by his followers to take Mother Dark's hand in marriage, but her Consort, Lord Draconus, stands in the way of such ambitions.

Los cazahuesos es la sexta entrega de la saga «Malaz: El Libro de los Caídos», la decalogía originalmente publicada entre 1999 y 2011 que ha convertido al escritor canadiense Steven Erikson en una de las mayores voces de la fantasía épica contemporánea. Desde entonces, esta obra maestra de la imaginación está considerada una de las series más ambiciosas que ha dado el género en los últimos años.

Después de décadas de guerras intestinas, las tribus de los Tiste Edur al fin se han unido bajo el mando del Rey Warlock. Hay paz, pero el precio ha sido terrible: un pacto hecho con un poder oculto cuyos motivos son, en el mejor de los casos, sospechosos, y, en el peor, mortales.

Este volumen comienza en el norte de Genabackis, el día que empieza el extraordinario destino de Karsa Orlong, uno de los tres guerrerossalvajes que descienden las montañas para atacar las tierras del sur. Pasados unos años, Tavore, la inexperta consejera de la emperatriz, debe adiestrar a doce mil soldados para convertirlos en una fuerza capaz de desafiar a las hordas de la elegida, Sha'ik, que aguardan en el desierto. Allí, sus caudillos están enzarzados en una lucha de poder que amenaza al alma de la rebelión, mientras que Sha'ik se obsesiona con la que cree que es su mayor enemiga.

Una fuerza aterradora ha surgido en el continente asolado de Genabackis. Como una marea de sangre corrompida, el Dominio Painita cruza el continente como lava hirviente que consume a todos los que no escuchan la palabra de su profeta, el Vidente Painita. En su camino se interpone una alianza incómoda: la hueste de Dujek Unbrazo y los veteranos Abrasapuentes de Whiskeyjack, junto con antiguos adversarios: el caudillo Caladan Brood, Anomander Rake y sus tiste andii. Superados en número y desconfiando de todo y de todos, deben hacer llegar el mensaje a cualquier posible aliado.

Debilitado por los acontecimientos en Darujhistan, el Imperio de Malaz se halla al borde de la anarquía. En el vasto dominio de las Siete Ciudades, en el desierto Santo Raraku, la vidente Sha'ik y sus seguidores se preparan para el Torbellino, la sublevación profetizada desde hace mucho tiempo. Será un brote de fanatismo que envolverá al imperio en un salvajismo y una sed de sangre sin precedentes. Estallará uno de los conflictos más sangrientos de su historia y surgirán nuevos destinos y leyendas...
