Those Below

Description

The story begun in *Those Above* comes to a conclusion in this battle for the hearts and minds of the human race. For centuries beyond counting, humanity has served Those Above, god-like Eternals who rule from their cloud-capped mountain-city of unimagined beauty and unchecked viciousness. But all that is about to change. Bas Alyates, grizzled general of a thousand battles, has assembled a vast army to contend with the might of Those Above. Eudokia, Machiavellian matriarch and the power behind the Empty Throne, travels to the Roost, nominally to play peacemaker - but in fact to inspire the human population toward revolt. Deep in the dark byways of the mountain's foothills, the urchin Pyre leads a band of fanatical revolutionaries in acts of terrorism against their inhuman oppressors. Against them, Calla, handmaiden of Those Above, fights desperately to stave off the rising tide of violence which threatens to destroy her beloved city.
