When the Dreadmount erupts, bringing with it an age of terror and violence, these women must find the strength to protect humankind from a devastating threat. Now someone from her mother's past is coming to upend her fate. Dumai has spent her life in a Seiikinese mountain temple, trying to wake the gods from their long slumber. The dragons of the East have slept for centuries. Their daughter, Glorian, trails in their shadow - exactly where she wants to be. To the north, in the Queendom of Inys, Sabran the Ambitious has married the new King of Hroth, narrowly saving both realms from ruin. For fifty years, she has trained to slay wyrms - but none have appeared since the Nameless One, and the younger generation is starting to question the Priory's purpose. Intricate and epic, A Day of Fallen Night sweeps readers back to the world of A Priory of the Orange Tree, showing us a course of events that shaped it for generations to come.The long-awaited second instalment in Samantha Shannon's Sunday Times and New York Times-bestselling series
