Dave Duncan The Dodec Books Children of Chaos (B)



On a dodecahedral world in thrall to the tyrannical. war-obsessed Hrag dynasty, no one could stop the Bloodlord from sending troops to Florengia, invading its major cities. and offering them a choice between strict colonial rule or immediate and total destruction. When the doge of Celebre was faced with this ultimatum, he gave his children up as hostages so that the rest of Celebre might live. Thus the four young Florengians were taken back over the Edge and scattered across the Yigaelian face.

Fifteen years later. when Celebre suddenly takes on crucial political significance. one of the siblings must return home to serve as Celebre’s puppet ruler. and the others must be eliminated so that there are no rival claimants to the throne. It’s going to be tough enough findingone another. let alone deciding whether enough kinship remains after fifteen years apart that the siblings will care to help each other out of their respective predicaments. If they re feeling particularly altruistic. the Celebres might even take on the bonus round: trying to save Dodec from the culture of death and war imposed on it by its evil wariords.

One thing's for certain: the Celebre children are going to have a lot of adjusting to do____

“The estimable Duncans mad plots. dark intrigues. vivid cast, and lashings of magie leave many engrosslng mysteries to be elucidated in volume two." —Kirkus Reviews

“This odd group of siblings... behave nothing at all like the standard protagonists of epic fantasy but a great deal like

real people thrust into Interesting Times____Duncan, that /

wiły devil, has done it again!” —Locus
