The Curse On The Chosen A Tale Of The Three Worlds

the long version

"Beset by false friends and the weight of a world's expectations, Nish must flee his father - the corrupt God-Emperor - always searching for the means to end his rule. Nish's reluctant allies are Maelys, who believes he betrayed her family; former scrutator Xervish Flydd, now stripped of power; and Colm, whom Nish owes a favour he can never repay." "If the group's fragile partnership survives, they may have a chance to save themselves, and their land. A hidden tower must be found in a barren arctic wilderness, and somehow the dread Numinator, who despises all humanity, must be convinced to come to their aid." "And what of the different futures projected in the Pit of Possibilities? Can they, and should they, trust its portents? They have nothing to lose but their hope - a frail weapon in a war upon a god."--BOOK JACKET.
