The Spider's War
The Dagger and the Coin SeriesDaniel Abraham
In the final installment of The Dagger and The Coin series, Lord Regent Geder Palliako's ongoing war stretches across the globe. While his victories seem infinite, they are tempered by rebellion and fracture within his own ranks. Thus, his empire threatens to dissolve into a permanent state of warfare. Cithrin bel Sarcour, Marcus Wester, and Clara Kalliam must carry the weight of peace against the chaotic backdrop of their crumbling society, using all the tools at their disposal, even if it means relying on high-level traitors, a dragon empire refugee, and the most daring and audacious financial fraud in history.
