But peace has been exacted at a  terrible price - a pact made with a hidden power whose motives are at  best suspect, at worst deadly. \u003cbr\u003eTo the south, the expansionist  kingdom of Lether has devoured all of its less-civilised neighbours with  rapacious hunger. All save one - the Tiste Edur. But Lether is  approaching a long-prophesied renaissance - from kingdom and lost colony  to Empire reborn - and has fixed its gaze on the rich lands of the  Tiste Edur. It seems inevitable that the tribes will surrender, either  to the suffocating weight of gold, or to slaughter at the edge of a  sword. Or so Destiny has decreed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA pivotal treaty between the  two sides nears - but unknown ancient forces are awakening. For the  impending struggle between these two peoples is but a pale reflection of  an altogether more profound, primal battle - a confrontation with the  still-raw wound of betrayal and the craving for vengeance at its heart.  War and confrontation, magic and myth collide in this, the stunning  fifth chapter in Steven Erikson's magnificent 'Malazan Book of the  Fallen' sequence, hailed as an epic of the imagination and a fantasy  classic in the making.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArchaeologist and anthropologist \u003cb\u003eSteven Erikson\u003c\/b\u003e's debut fantasy novel, \u003ci\u003eGardens of the Moon\u003c\/i\u003e,  was shortlisted for the World Fantasy Award and introduced fantasy  readers to his epic 'The Malazan Book of the Fallen' sequence, which has  been hailed 'a masterwork of the imagination'. \u003ci\u003eThis River Awakens \u003c\/i\u003ewas  hist first novel, and originally published under the name Steve Lundin.
