Brotherhood of the wolf - David Farland

In the aftermath of the first great battle against Raj Ahten, southern Wolf Lord, who would take godlike powers to himself, Gaborn Val Orden, Prince and Earth King, realises that the main threat to humanity may come from elsewhere - the inhuman Reavers, who are being seen in unheard-of numbers.
It may even be that Gaborn has to offer a truce to Raj Ahten - the man who killed his father - in order that their forces can combine to fight off the Reavers.
David Farland has created a world and characters that resonate in the reader's mind long after the book has been finished. His totally original use of magic and 'endowments' sets him apart from the normal run of fantasy - 'Farland's new series...carries the novel beyond the standard generic qualities of epic fantasy' LOCUS.
