Stunning new deluxe edition of this #1 New York Times bestseller, the second book in the Hierarchy series from fantasy sensation James Islington.
The New York Times No. 1 bestseller
The Hierarchy still call me Vis Telimus. They still, as one, believe they know who I am. But with all that has happened-with what I fear is coming-I am not sure it matters anymore. I am no longer one. I won the Iudicium, and lost everything-and now, impossibly, the ancient device beyond the Labyrinth has replicated me across three separate worlds. A different version of myself in each of Obiteum, Luceum, and Res. Three different bodies, three different lives. I have to hide; fight; play politics. I have to train; trust; lie. I have to kill; heal; prove myself again, and again, and again.
I am loved, and hated, and entirely alone. Above all, though, I need to find answers before it's too late. To understand the nature of what has happened to me, and why.
I need to find a w a y to stop the coming Cataclysm, because if all I have learned is true, I may be the only one who can.
