Description
“You're a cheerful lot, aren't you?” Mennia said.
“If you're about to say that we'll get through, don't bother,” Carlitha said sourly.
“Well, won't we?”
“Mennia, if you start in about the gods again, I'll throw something.”
“I wasn't going to mention the gods. I was just saying that I don't intend to fail after all this effort. You can do what you like, but I'm getting into that city even if I have to tunnel all the way to the temple with my bare hands.”
“There's not really a lot you can say to that,” Niari observed mildly to Carlitha.
“Oh, shut up, Niari!”
A year ago, Niari, Carlitha, Friend, and their companions beat the Cult of the Earth Mother to the Collar of Volandris, thus completing the set of the Collars of Phaleran. Prophecy says the collars must be taken to the fabled Temple of the Damned so that the events that are ordained to happen there may take place; events that will affect the very future of their world. But certain necessary signs had not yet been fulfilled, so they hid the collars where the Cult couldn’t get to them and went home to wait.
Now it’s time.
All the signs are fulfilled, and the journey to the Temple can begin.
There’s just one small problem. According to their research, the Temple of the Damned is situated in the kingdom of Nava. And Nava is headquarters for the Cult. The entire resources of the kingdom are ranged against the Companions.
Also, the event in the Temple of the Damned is a meeting. Both sides must be present for a meeting to take place. That means the Cult knows where they’re going. Some in the Cult believe that they can win by default if they can prevent the meeting from taking place. With troops converging from all sides, the companions must make it to the Temple through territory that’s alien to them but home to the hunters. And meanwhile, one of the gods is trying to sabotage the quest and prevent the meeting from taking place.
Last time, a very unexpected alliance with the nature spirits helped them win the victory. They’ll need even more help this time. They were astounded when the nature spirits made their offer. They’ll be completely flabbergasted when they find out who is offering them aid this time; and absolutely dumbfounded when they find out why.
With a group of uniquely talented companions, some very strange allies, and perhaps just a little help from the gods (most of them, anyway), Niari, Carlitha and Friend set out for Nava and the Temple of the Damned – and whatever they may find there.
Can they make it through to the Temple of the Damned in the face of impossible odds? Can they do what they have to do there, and will it finally bring peace to the world? Come join those champions of the gods on their most dangerous quest yet – if you dare.
The Temple of the Damned is the third novel in the Daughters of Destiny series and follows on from events in Voices from the Grave. But it should be perfectly possible to read it without having first read the other two books.
