Synopsis

Chalcedean hunters attack the keepers. Dragon blood sells for a fortune on the black market. And a precious fragment of Elderling is in the wrong hands. Selden Vestrit, exhibited like a fairground beast at the court of Jamaillia, must escape.

Conclusion of City of Dragons. The narrative takes on the appearance of a political thriller: the sick duke of Chalced, his hunters launched on conquest, the Bingtown Traders caught between alliances and betrayals, and in the middle, the young Elderlings who learn to defend themselves. The tetralogy rises in intensity before its denouement.

Blood that sells dearly always attracts more knives than tenderness.City of Dragons (Part 2) — Robin Hobb
