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.

The sun is setting on humanity. The night now belongs to voracious demons that prey upon a dwindling population forced to cower behind half-forgotten symbols of power. Legends tell of a Deliverer: a general who once bound all mankind into a single force that defeated the demons. But is the return of the Deliverer just another myth? Perhaps not.

Continuing the impressive debut fantasy series from author Peter V. Brett, The Desert Spear is book two of the Demon Cycle, pulling the reader into a world of demons, darkness and heroes. The Deliverer has returned, but who is he? Arlen Bales, formerly of the small hamlet of Tibbet's Brook, learnt harsh lessons about life as he grew up in a world where hungry demons stalk the night and humanity is trapped by its own fear.

À la nouvelle lune, les hordes infernales du Cœur se mettent en quête des deux seuls hommes susceptibles d'incarner le Libérateur légendaire, capable d'éradiquer les démons de la terre.

Qui est le Libérateur dont parlent les légendes ? Arien, originaire du petit village de Val Tibbet, a appris à survivre dans un monde où des démons voraces rôdent dans la nuit et où l'humanité s'est enfermée dans la peur. Il a choisi une autre voie : se battre. Il est devenu l'Homme-rune, un héros malgré lui. Mais l'homme qui se proclame le Libérateur n'est pas Arien. Surgi du désert, Ahmann fut son ami et son frère d'armes avant de le trahir.

Il y a parfois de très bonnes raisons d'avoir peur du noir... Dans le monde du jeune Arlen, dès que le soleil se couche les démons sortent de terre et dévorent les êtres vivants. Le seul espoir de survie: s'abriter derrière des runes magiques qui repoussent ces monstres et prier pour qu'elles tiennent jusqu'aux premières lueurs de l'aube. Seule une poignée de Messagers bravent la nuit au péril de leur vie pour relier les hameaux dont les habitants ne s'éloignent jamais.

Le Trône de Crâne, symbole de pouvoir tenant les chtoniens à distance, est vacant. Son occupant, Ahmann Jardir, a disparu lorsque l'Homme-rune s'est dressé sur son chemin. Depuis, une guerre de succession menace de terrasser les Villes Libres de Thesa. Pendant ce temps, la force des chtoniens grandit et, en l'absence d'Arlen et d'Ahmann, il se pourrait que personne ne soit de taille à les arrêter. Seule Renna Bales sait peut-être ce qu'il est advenu des deux frères ennemis, mais elle semble elle aussi s'être volatilisée...

Depuis des temps immémoriaux, des démons assoiffés de sang rôdent dans les ténèbres. L'espèce humaine, décimée, dépend pour se protéger d'une magie en bonne partie oubliée. En cherchant à unir la population pour mener la guerre ultime contre les chtoniens, Arlen et Jardir ont incité ceux-ci à se multiplier aux quatre coins de Thesa. L'humanité ne peut espérer survivre, à moins qu'Arlen, Jardir et Renna obligent le fourbe prince démon qu'ils ont fait prisonnier à les guider vers le Cœur.

Viele Jahre ist es her, dass die Welt unter den Dämonen der Nacht zu leiden hatte. Kein Mensch, kein Tier war sicher vor ihren Angriffen - bis zu dem Tag, als mit Arlen, Renna, Jardir eine Schar von mutigen Kriegern und Magierinnen den Kampf gegen die Dämonen aufnahm. Seitdem herrscht Frieden. Doch dann dringen unheilvolle Gerüchte an ihre Ohren. Haben einige Dämonen überlebt? Eine neue Generation von Helden muss nun aufstehen, um sich der Furcht und der Gefahr zu stellen.

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. As darkness falls, the world’s few surviving humans hide behind magical wards, praying the magic can see them through another night. As years pass, the distances between each tiny village seem longer and longer. It seems nothing can harm the corelings, or bring humanity back together.

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. Jardir, armed with magically warded weapons, called himself the Deliverer, a figure prophesied to unite humanity and lead them to triumph in Sharak Ka.

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.

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.
