Led by an ancient cult, the powerful city-state of Dranak declares its independence, and the Emperor is faced with a choice: negotiate with his vassal, or put the rebellion down by force. Caught in a war that should never even have begun, only the young Daquah Imharet can see a way out. But it isn't only her people's ancestral enemies she must convince of this; it is her very own family.
Taking place just months after Rebellion of the Raging Sun, War of the Weeping Sky is the harrowing conclusion to the epic Ankuan Trilogy. For millennia, the Ankuan Empire has been the sole uncontested power on the vast continent of Oasara. Now, not even its two greatest champions can change the tide. Try as they might, Verhan and Tentar cannot win this war alone. Treachery takes its toll, and in more ways than one.
