THE PENDULUM IS SLOWING. THE GEARS ARE BREAKING DOWN. These were the words of warning given to the last Keyholder of Eriaris. But since they came from the sinister Mistress of the Spektors, the Colonists didn’t want to believe them. And why should they? Fortune, after all, has finally turned in their favor. Against impossible odds, they survived the battle on Fenmire, took their worst enemy prisoner, and acquired a mysterious artifact that could silence the Mistress forever. Now, with a new mode of transportation and the aid of unexpected allies, the way is clear to find their missing friends and attempt to put everything to rights. But then the ticking begins. New horrors appear. And the Colonists are thrown into a desperate race against the Sundering—a cruel affliction which threatens not only their beloved Keyholder, but every living soul. The harrowing adventure will take them deep into treacherous waters and forgotten corners of the world, fraught with new enemies and inconceivable dangers. Meanwhile, clouds of war are gathering in the west as the insidious Blue Flames accelerate their plans. Politicians weave their webs. Darkness grows by the day. All things considered, Eriaris needs nothing short of a miracle. That, or a kid in an oversized top hat. The Sundering Hours is the fourth book of the epic fantasy series The Riverfall Chronicles.

A world-shaping event revives old favorites, introduces new complications—and moves hero Drizzt Do'Urden into a restored era of the Forgotten Realms Alone and with his fate hanging in the balance, Drizzt Do'Urden reflects on the lives of the trusted allies who stood by his side throughout his early life—the friends now known as the Companions of the Hall. Unbeknownst to him, the goddess Mielikki has given Bruenor, Catti-brie, Regis, and Wulfgar the chance to return to the world they left behind. Reborn as children but with their memories still intact, the friends must find a way back to one another—and to their lone Companion, Drizzt. Meanwhile, three seemingly unrelated commoners, growing up across the far reaches of the Forgotten Realms, display incredible feats of power. Against all odds, they hold the fate of Drizzt Do'Urden in their hands—a fate that is far from certain. For in the shadows, a cunning cabal of wizards is watching, intent on hunting the "Chosen" mortals who have been blessed by the gods. These wizards know something mere commoners do not: Long-forgotten gods have begun to stir. Long-lost lands have begun to tremble. The world around them is about to change—and these wizards will do whatever it takes to turn the coming chaos to their advantage. The Companions is the first book in the Sundering series and the twenty-seventh book in the Legend of Drizzt series.

“Space opera the way it ought to be [...] Bujold and Weber, bend the knee; interstellar adventure has a new king, and his name is Walter Jon Williams.” -- George R.R. Martin Following The Praxis, Walter Jon Williams’ critically-acclaimed mix of space opera and military science fiction, the conflict grows for the fate of humanity…and the universe. The Dread Empire of the Shaa is no more, following the death of the last oppressor. But freedom remains elusive for the myriad sentient races enslaved for ten centuries, as an even greater terror arises. The Naxids—a powerful insectoid species themselves subjugated until the recent Shaa demise—plan to fill the vacuum with their own bloody domination, and have already won a shattering victory with superior force and unimaginable cruelty. But two heroes survived the carnage at Magaria: Lord Gareth Martinez and the fiery, mysterious gun pilot Lady Caroline Sula, whose courageous exploits are becoming legend in the new history of galactic civil war. Yet their cunning, skill, and bravery may be no match for the overwhelming enemy descending upon the loyalist stronghold of Zanshaa, as the horrific battle looms that will determine the structure of the universe—and who shall live to inhabit it—for millennia to come.
