Children of Earth and Sky

Children of Earth and Sky

The bestselling author of the groundbreaking novels Under Heaven and River of Stars, Guy Gavriel Kay weaves a world inspired by the conflicts and dramas of Renaissance Europe. Against this tumultuous backdrop the lives of men and women unfold on the borderlandsâ€”where empires and faiths collide.

From the small coastal town of Senjan, notorious for its pirates, a young woman sets out to find vengeance for her lost family. That same spring, from the wealthy city-state of Seressa, famous for its canals and lagoon, come two very different people: a young artist traveling to the dangerous east to paint the grand khalif at his requestâ€”and possibly to do moreâ€”and a fiercely intelligent, angry woman posing as a doctorâ€™s wife but sent by Seressa as a spy.

The trading ship that carries them is commanded by the accomplished younger son of a merchant family, ambivalent about the life heâ€™s been born to live. And farther east a boy trains to become a soldier in the elite infantry of the khalifâ€”to win glory in the war everyone knows is coming.

As these lives entwine, their fatesâ€”and those of many othersâ€”will hang in the balance when the khalif sends out his massive army to take the great fortress that is the gateway to the western world....
