Tax included.
For Sergeant Whiskeyjack and his squad of Bridgeburners - and for Tattersail, the Second Legion’s only surviving sorceress - the aftermath of the siege of Pale should have been a time to heal the wounded and mourn the dead. But the ancient citadel of Darujhistan, last of the Free Cities of Genabackis, still holds out against the Empire - and Empress Laseen’s ambition knows no bounds. However, the Empire is not alone in this great game - sinister forces are gathering as the gods themselves prepare to play their hand .
