The city of Ebora once glittered with gold. Now its streets are stalked by wolves. Tormalin the
Oathless has no taste for waiting to die while the realm of his ancestors falls to pieces -
talk about a guilt trip. When eccentric explorer Lady Vincenza ' Vintage' de Grazon
offers him employment he sees a way out. Even when they are joined by a fugitive witch with a
tendency to set things on fire the prospect of facing down monsters and retrieving artefacts
is preferable to the abomination left behind. But not everyone is willing to let the empire
collapse and the adventurers are soon drawn into a tangled conspiracy of magic and war. The
Jure' lia are coming and the Ninth Rain must fall... The first in an electrifying new
trilogy from the acclaimed author of the Copper Cat series. Praise for Jen Williams: '
A fresh take on classic tropes... 21st century fantasy at its best' SFX ' A
fast-paced and original new voice' Adrian Tchaikovsky ' Highly recommended'
