Winter blankets the land, and more than just hope has died. Prevented from invading the Fhrey homeland by the tower of Avempartha, the western army seeks a way across the Nidwalden River before the fane obtains the secret of dragons. As time runs out for both humanity and the mystic Suri, the only chance for the living rests with the dead. Having made their fateful choice, can a handful of misfits do the impossible, or are they forever lost to an inescapable grave? Do gods truly exist? Is it possible to know the future? And what lies beyond the veil of death? In the tradition of Virgil's Aeneid, Dante's Divine Comedy, and Milton's Paradise Lost, the most epic of tales transcend the world of the living. It's time to see what lies in Elan's Age of Death.

Review of 'Age of Death' on 'Goodreads'

Good read. Although I really like Michael's books and how he structures them. This book felt incomplete. Unlike his other books (and this is somewhat addressed in the afterward), there was so much going on and so much information that it would have been crazy to explain it all. But that's the problem, it wasn't as tightly written as the other books in the series. I would assume Age of Empyre will clean things up, but just felt let down. The cliffhanger at the end of the book doesn't help as the expectation was to be a bit farther along in the story at the end of this book.
