Gadrith needed the Stone of Shackles, which was a problem, because he had no idea where it was. Thirty years of him plotting to snatch Urthaenriel away from everyone, us included, just came to a rolling boil in the Capital. Our favorite undead necromancer decided that he and he alone was the answer to all those prophecies. Long story short: this is all Gadrith’s fault. I suppose I should explain what really happened in the Capital. Spoilers for Book 1 below, so read at your own risk.

But she’s really only cares about her side of the story, so she leaves out some important details about sea monsters and dragons and zombie choirs. So just in case you’ve forgotten any details from February’s blockbuster epic fantasy The Ruin of Kings, we’ve got you covered. We know the wait is hard though and that details are sometimes even harder. But don’t worry, it’s just a few more months. Can’t wait for The Name of All Things? Same.
