The epic story of Thomas Cale—introduced so memorably in
The Left Hand of God—continues as the Redeemers use his
prodigious gifts to further their sacred goal: the
extinction of humankind and the end of the
world...
To the warrior-monks known as the
Redeemers, “the last four things” represent the culmination
of a faithful life. Death. Judgment. Heaven. Hell. The last
four things represent eternal bliss—or endless destruction,
permanent chaos, and infinite pain.
Perhaps nowhere
are the competing ideas of heaven and hell exhibited more
clearly than in the dark and tormented soul of Thomas Cale.
Betrayed by the girl he loves but still marked by a child’s
innocence, possessed of a remarkable aptitude for violence
but capable of extreme tenderness, Cale will lead the
Redeemers into a battle for nothing less than the fate of
the human race. And though his broken heart foretells the
bloody trail he will leave in pursuit of a personal peace he
can never achieve, a glimmer of hope remains—the question
even Cale can’t answer: When it comes time to decide the
fate of the world, to ensure the extermination of humankind
or spare it, what will he choose? To express God’s will on
the edge of his sword, or to forgive his fellow man—and himself?
