The Great Extermination has begun. In the Capitol, Grand Inquisitor Omand Vokkan hatches a plot to kill every member of the untouchable caste in all of Lok, down to the last man, woman, and child.

Through them, he has convinced the Judges that the genocide will be swift, complete, and without complication. Nothing is farther from the truth.

Dante and Blays have a single hope of victory: the Spear of Stars, the long-lost weapon that may be capable of killing the lich. There's just one problem. Though they've learned the spear is real, they've also learned the nine parts of the weapon are guarded by the gods themselves. And they have no intention of handing over their prize. Alone in a strange realm, with no friends or allies, and a growing list of enemies, Dante and Blays' task looks doomed. Yet, they're the last line standing between the lich and the destruction of their whole world.

Ashok Vadal was once a member of the highest caste in all of Lok. As a Protector, he devoted his life to upholding the Law, rooting out those who still practiced the old ways and delivering justice with his ancestor blade Angruvadal. None was more merciless than he in stamping out the lingering belief in gods and demons among the casteless. His brutality was legendary and celebrated. But soon Ashok learned that his life to that point had been a lie. He himself, senior member of the Protector Order, was casteless. He had been nothing more than an unwitting pawn in a political game.

The ancient magic of wizards was anything but dark. It was the enlightenment that lifted humanity from the squalor of superstition, and the worship of fell spirits and capricious gods, but those days are gone. The shining glory of the sorcerers burned away the subtlety of wisdom, replacing it with easy power, held only in the hands of the elite - a new age built upon the elemental supremacy of aristocrats and the ignorance of the masses.

Publisher's Summary
After a long journey, Jax finds himself abandoned far from home in the desert nation of Kalicodon. When any infraction to tribal honor will land him in chains as a slave, he must learn quickly to adapt in a foreign land in hopes of maintaining his freedom. In his struggles to liberate Daren from slavery, he meets Jesnia, a woman from his homeland, who has hunted fugitives from justice to the eastern edge of the desert. Without his own cunning and her talents, Jax may very well meet his end, fighting for his life in the arena.

Jax is a very lucky fellow
This book brings in a number of newer characters to the series, most notably, Jax. Jax is a young scion of a merchant father whose sense of justice only extends to what benefits him; while Jax could be considered a somewhat naive and unaware medieval social justice type. He is thrust into a country that has a very rigid caste and honor system along with a long history of slavery. His contra-views soon gets him into deep trouble with the governing class in the country. He then must rely on his wits and, begrudgingly, ally himself with several newly acquainted people of questionable loyalty if he can even remotely have a chance of surviving his ordeal.
There is intrigue and close-call battle engagements but the distrustful ones were either clearly obvious or obvious by indirect means.
While some of the sections were a bit far-fetched, I did enjoy listening to the novel; especially since Jax seems to be slated for an important role later in the Elwin Escari Chronicles.

well written but went no where very slowly...
whilst it was a good enough story nothing really happened in the story except to set the stage for the next book? A well written and crafted- fluid story... just a bit hollow
