Philosophical, bizarre, sprawling, and epic. Howling Dark outshined the already stunning Empire of Silence.
“The poets say that one’s fears grow less with trial, that we become men without fear if tried enough. I have not found it to be so. Rather, on each occasion we are tested, we become stronger than our fears. It is all we can do. Must do. Lest we perish for our failings.”
