'STUNNING' RICHARD SWAN
'GREATHOUSE IS A MASTER' RYAN ROSE
'ABSOLUTELY RIVETING' THE FANTASY HIVE
'MARTIN BY WAY OF SAPKOWSKI' FANFIADDICT
A LAND DIVIDED. A HISTORY INKED IN BLOOD. ONE SORCERESS'S QUEST FOR ANSWERS.
The world beyond the City of the Wise is fraught with danger. But Fola, a talented sorceress who has left the safety of its walls, is unconcerned. She's on the hunt for magical remnants left behind by the First Folk - ancient beings who are but the whisper of a memory. Only by finding them might she uncover the secret to their power and a way to pull the riven lands out of the darkness.
Danger lies ahead for Fola, however she feels about it. And when events conspire to drag her into a cursed kingdom to investigate the death of its king, she's soon faced by threats from both the living and the dead.
Fola will need to rely on her wits, her magic and her unlikely friends if she's going to survive. But there is always hope, no matter how dark things get. And three things remain true, above all else.
Fellowship is stronger than isolation.
The past will come back to haunt you.
Nothing stays secret forever.
A fantasy epic of breathtaking scope, this is a rich standalone adventure for fans of Geralt and Ciri in The Witcher, for those who loved the mystery of The Tainted Cup and The Raven Scholar, or for anyone looking to recapture the magic of The Wheel of Time.

Press Reviews
- FanFiAddict
Martin by way of Sapkowski, Greathouse's new epic weaves a wonderfully engrossing story guaranteed to capture the attention of fantasy fans everywhere. Looking for a new chonky epic fantasy to lose yourself in? Look no further
- Ryan Rose, author of Seven Recipes for Revolution
You can tell Greathouse is a master by looking at the sheer scope of this book. Few authors could weave a haunted nation, a wandering mage, a hot dude with four arms, a fiend-invested girl, and a tortured priest into a coherent story, let alone one so compelling. You'll be itching for the next puzzle-piece in the epic worldbuilding mystery, and applauding as it all comes together
- A.S. Tamaki, author of The Book of Fallen Leaves
A great, deep and magical world to get lost in - classic and contemporary fantasy hand in hand
- Auston Habershaw, author of If Wishes Were Retail
Highly recommended for fans of epic fantasy
- Richard Swan, Sunday Times bestselling author
Stunning . . . the model of 21st century sword and sorcery
- Jared Pechaček, author of The West Passage
A beautiful, intricate, angry book about the price tag of history, and whether we should keep paying it
- The Fantasy Hive
An absolutely riveting read from a storyteller who knows his craft
- SFX
J.T. Greathouse flexes the muscles of his imagination with The Tower of the Tyrant . . . this is a work of expansive scope and scale, with thrilling battles, compelling characters and high stakes
