The third and final book in The Nightfall Saga, the thrilling and action-packed epic fantasy series set in the world of The Demon Cycle, from New York Times bestselling author Peter V. Brett “Heart-wrenching, smart, and modern . . . The Desert Prince has set a new standard for fantasy...

Peter V. Brett has won accolades from critics, fans and fellow authors alike for this riveting debut novel. The Warded Man features a world where demons stalk the night, hunting humans who have long forgotten the magic of their ancestors. But all is not lost, as some hold out hope that a savior will release humanity from the demons' terrifying reign.

The Skull Throne of Krasia stands empty. Built from the skulls of fallen generals and demon princes, it is a seat of honor and ancient, powerful magic, keeping the demon corelings at bay. From atop the throne, Ahmann Jardir was meant to conquer the known world, forging its isolated peoples into a unified army to rise up and end the demon war once and for all. But Arlen Bales, the Warded Man, stood against this course, challenging Jardir to a duel he could not in honor refuse.

The world remains under siege by demonkind stalking the land when the sun goes down. But a new hero has risen from the desert. Claiming to be the mythical Deliverer, Ahmann Jardir now rides alongside the allied desert tribes of Krasia. Jardir and his fellows are on an epic quest to vanquish the demons plaguing the world and bring humanity back from the brink of extinction.

In this heart-stopping installment of the Demon Cycle, humanity continues to struggle against the demon plague - even as survivors hold out hope that the Deliverer will save them all. On the night of the new moon, the demons rise in force, seeking the deaths of two men, both of whom have the potential to become the fabled Deliverer, the man prophesied to reunite the scattered remnants of humanity in a final push to destroy the demon corelings once and for all.

For time out of mind, bloodthirsty demons have stalked the night, culling the human race to scattered remnants dependent on half-forgotten magics to protect them. Then two heroes arose - men as close as brothers, yet divided by bitter betrayal. Arlen Bales became known as the Warded Man, tattooed head to toe with powerful magic symbols that enable him to fight demons in hand-to-hand combat-and emerge victorious.

From the dangerous world of the Demon Cycle comes the early adventures of Arlen, Peter V. Brett's quintessential fantasy hero. These exciting origin tales follow Arlen as he learns to navigate a world where the elemental forces of evil conjure themselves from the earth each night. Humanity has barely survived a demonic onslaught by using magical wards that protect their cities and homes. Only a handful of mercenaries and explorers risk traveling after the sun sets. Arlen, seeking adventure, is barely protected by the warded armor upon which he has inscribed intricate defensive runes.

When local businessman Rusco Hog is found dead out on the old Tanner farm, it appears to be a demon attack. But for Selia Barren, the Town Speaker, the evidence doesn’t add up. She suspects foul play, but Rusco didn’t become the richest man in town by making friends, and it seems everyone in Tibbet’s Brook has a motive.

Demons have been all but destroyed, but dangers still lurk for the children of heroes.  

Mankind has ceded the night to the corelings, demons that rise up out of the ground each day at dusk, killing and destroying at will until dawn, when the sun banishes them back to the Core.

Cada noche, cuando la oscuridad se cierne sobre el mundo, los hambrientos abismales, demonios a los que no se puede herir con armas corrientes, emergen a la tierra para alimentarse de los vivos. Cuando el sol se pone, los hombres deben refugiarse tras símbolos mágicos y rezar por que su protección dure una noche más. Aunque no siempre fue así. Hubo un tiempo en que, bajo el mando del legendario Liberador y armados con poderosos símbolos, los hombres presentaron batalla a los demonios... y frenaron su avance.

Seit die Menschen beschlossen haben, sich den Dämonen der Nacht entgegenzustellen und zu kämpfen, hat sich das Antlitz der Welt gewandelt. Das Volk der Krasianer ist gegen den Norden in den Krieg gezogen, und das kleine Tal der Holzfäller ist zu einer mächtigen, siegelbewehrten Stadt angewachsen. Doch Arlen, der tätowierte Mann, und Jardir, der Anführer der Krasianer, stehen sich immer noch in erbitterter Feindschaft gegenüber.
