The Tower of Living and Dying
ByPublisher Description
A powerhouse story of bloodshed, ambition, and fate, The Tower of Living and Dying is a continuation of Anna Smith Spark's brilliant Empires of Dust trilogy, which began with The Court of Broken Knives.
Marith has been a sellsword, a prince, a murderer, a demon, and dead. But something keeps bringing him back to life, and now there is nothing stopping him from taking back the throne that is rightfully his.
Thalia, the former high priestess, remains Marith's only tenuous grasp to whatever goodness he has left. His left hand and his last source of light, Thalia still believes that the power that lies within him can be used for better ends. But as more forces gather beneath Marith's banner, she can feel her influence slipping.
Read the second book in this "gritty and glorious!" (Miles Cameron) epic fantasy series reminiscent of Joe Abercrombie and Mark Lawrence where the exiled son of a king fights to reclaim his throne no matter the cost.

“I enjoyed book #2 more than #1. A lot more movement in the story and far less despicable crazy things from one of the main characters. Definitely one of those stories where you generally know how it's going to end long before it does, especially reading it 5 years after publication and there is a book 3. If there was a way to "not" know that there is a book 3 it would create a lot more tension, but still beautifully written and well done. My only real head scratch is the entire 1/3 of the book dedicated to the other half of the world. I know it was a major part of book #1, but in this you can remove it and it doesn't change the book at all. Has to come into play in book #3, but book 2 it was character movement/death and that is it. The main plot of the book was in the other side of the world.”Legacysiren
