The Fifth Season
My Review
This was a great book for the first 75% but then the story ran out of gas and there was little narrative tension in the last quarter.
Publisher Description
**A SEASON OF ENDINGS HAS BEGUN.** IT STARTS WITH THE GREAT RED RIFT across the heart of the world's sole continent, spewing ash that blots out the sun. IT STARTS WITH DEATH, with a murdered son and a missing daughter. IT STARTS WITH BETRAYAL and long-dormant wounds rising up to fester. This is the Stillness, a land familiar with catastrophe, where the power of the earth is wielded as a weapon. And where there is no mercy. This description comes from the publisher.
