The epic fantasy series of war and empire by Arthur C. Clarke Awardwinning author Adrian Tchaikovsky continues in the fourth book of the Shadows of the Apt series. Now reissued with a fresh cover look.
A terrible new power could see the Wasp Empire triumph over everything. It's time for spymaster Stenwold to choose his path.
Uctebri's long search for the Shadow Box is finally over. Now the vampiric sorcerer can begin his dark ritual. The Waspkinden's Emperor believes this will grant him immortality, but Uctebri has his own plans - for the Emperor and the Empire.
The mighty Wasp armies are on the march. And now war is imminent, spymaster Stenwold can finally separate allies from false friends. For the Empire won't stop until a black and gold flag hangs over Collegium, Stenwold's home city.
Tisamon the Weaponsmaster could chose to face the Wasp Emperor himself with a blade in his hand. But he'd need to abandon friends and family, embracing degradation and loss. Yet is he driven by Mantiskinden honour, or being manipulated by something far more sinister?
Salute the Dark is followed by the fifth book in the Shadows of the Apt series, The Scarab Path.
