The small island of Malaz and its city gave the great empire its name, but now it is little more than a sleepy, backwater port. Tonight, however, things are different. Tonight the city is on edge, a hive of hurried, sometimes violent activity; its citizens bustle about, barring doors, shuttering windows, avoiding any stranger's stare. Because tonight there is to be a convergence, the once-in-a-generation appearance of a Shadow Moon - an occasion that threatens the good people of Malaz with demon hounds and other, darker things....

It gave the Empire its name, but the tiny island and city of Malaz is now a sleepy, seedy back-water port. However this night things are a little different. This night its residents are bustling about, barring doors and shuttering windows. Because this night a once-in-a-generation Shadow Moon is due and threatens the good citizens of Malaz with demon hounds and other, darker, beings.... And it was also prophesied that on this night the Emperor Kellanved, missing for all these years, will return.

La pequeña isla de Malaz y su núcleo urbano dieron nombre al Imperio; ahora solo es un tranquilo puerto. Sin embargo, esta noche algo cambiará. La ciudad se agita y sus habitantes atrancan las puertas y rehúyen a los desconocidos. Está a punto de producirse una convergencia: se trata de una Luna Sombría que amenaza a los malazanos con jaurías demoníacas y criaturas oscuras. Dice la profecía que esta noche regresará el emperador Kellanved, y son muchos los que pretenden evitarlo.
