The God is Not Willing

More about the book

Years after three Teblor warriors unleashed chaos on Silver Lake, the northern tribes avoid the southlands, and the town has healed, yet their legacy lingers. Karsa Orlong, one of the warriors, is now worshipped as an indifferent god. Various new religions have emerged, including those venerating Coltaine, the Black-Winged Lord, and Iskar Jarak, Guardian of the Dead, popular among soldiers. Amid reports of unrest among the tribes beyond the border, a legion of Malazan marines heads toward Silver Lake, uncertain of what awaits them. Although the Malazan military has evolved, their determination to confront any threat remains unchanged. In the mountains, a new Teblor warleader, scarred by Karsa's actions, seeks to challenge his god, even if it means carving a bloody path through the Malazan Empire. Meanwhile, a greater danger looms as a feared migration is set to begin, this time involving tens of thousands rather than just three warriors. A single company of Malazan marines stands in their way. As the past threatens to resurface in Silver Lake, ominous challenges lie ahead, signaling that history is about to repeat itself.
