Bakker R. Scott Knihy
R. Scott Bakker je autorom známy svojou epickou temnou fantasy a filozofickými prvkami. Jeho rozsiahle série skúmajú zložité otázky viery, nihilizmu a povahy moci. Bakker sa ponára do hlbín ľudskej psychiky a skúma, ako môžu ambície a presvedčenia formovať osudy civilizácií. Jeho štýl je hutný, detailný a vyznačuje sa komplexnými postavami, ktoré čelia morálnym dilemám v brutálnych svetoch.

A score of centuries has passed since the First Apocalypse and the thoughts of men have turned, inevitably, to more worldly concerns...A veteran sorcerer and spy seeks news of an ancient enemy. A military genius plots to conquer the known world for his Emperor but dreams of the throne for himself. The spiritual leader of the Thousand Temples seeks a Holy War to cleanse the land of the infidel. An exiled barbarian chieftain seeks vengeance against the man who disgraced him. And into this world steps a man like no other, seeking to bind all - man and woman, emperor and slave - to his own mysterious ends.But the fate of men - even great men - means little when the world itself may soon be torn asunder. Behind the politics, beneath the religious fervour, a dark and ancient evil is reawakening. After two thousand years, the No-God is returning. The Second Apocalypse is nigh. And one cannot raise walls against what has been forgotten...
