From the Burning Isle to the hellish depths of Zanzara, beyond the demon-haunted planets circling the Black Rim, only Maxus the Meddler may walk on worlds…and woe to any other who tries.
But now that Vashka, Scourge of Spatha, has risen and crushed the kingdoms of the east, it is only a matter of time until her forces arrive on the shores of Pathra. Maxus must turn away from the stars, back to a world he has commanded for centuries, and set his gaze on the only frontier to ever elude The Weeping Eye.
Lachmannon the Kael, Maxus’ sword arm and sole ally, has forsaken him. Now, to prevent the death of the world, the meddler must find new pawns to do his bidding, but good fools are hard to find.
John’s tales of swords, sorcery, and subversion have previously appeared in the pages of Weirdbook, Old Moon Quarterly, and New Edge Sword and Sorcery Magazine. Within the Weeping Eye picks up after the events of To Walk on Worlds, continuing the time-spanning Maxus Cycle.
