In Legacy of Steel, the Tressian Republic faces new threats as old wounds fester, setting the stage for an epic clash involving gods and mortals alike.
In Legacy of Steel, the eagerly awaited sequel to Matthew Ward's Legacy of Ash, readers are thrust back into a world where the stakes have never been higher. A year has passed since the Tressian Republic narrowly escaped destruction, but the scars of war remain. Viktor Akadra, the Republic's hero, has vanished, leaving a power vacuum that various factions are eager to exploit. The ruling council, struggling to heal from the previous conflict, finds itself facing new threats from both within and beyond its borders.
As the insidious Parliament of Crows weaves its dark plans, the Hadari Emperor amasses his forces to the east, preparing for an inevitable confrontation. The political intrigue is palpable, and the tension mounts as old alliances are tested and new enemies emerge. The fate of the Republic hangs in the balance, and the very fabric of reality is shaken as divine forces take sides in the brewing storm.
Legacy of Steel masterfully blends elements of warfare, myth, and magic, drawing readers into a richly crafted narrative that feels both epic and intimate. With its thrilling action sequences and complex characters, this installment promises to be a captivating continuation of a saga that fans of epic fantasy will not want to miss.
