About This Item

Experience the captivating world of "Roots of Chaos: A Day of Fallen Night" with this stunning hardcover edition. Written by Samantha Shannon, the New York Times bestselling author of "The Priory of the Orange Tree," this standalone prequel takes readers on an epic journey filled with intricate mythology and complex characters. In "A Day of Fallen Night," Shannon transports us back to the universe of "Priory of the Orange Tree" and introduces us to four remarkable women whose lives are intertwined in a course of events that will shape their world for generations to come. Tunuva Melim, a sister of the Priory, has dedicated fifty years to training in the art of slaying wyrms. However, since the appearance of the Nameless One, no wyrms have been seen, causing the younger generation to question the purpose of the Priory.

In the Queendom of Inys, Sabran the Ambitious has married the new King of Hróth, saving both realms from ruin. Their daughter, Glorian, finds herself constantly in their shadow, content to remain there. Meanwhile, in a Seiikinese mountain temple, Dumai has devoted her life to awakening the gods from their long slumber. However, her fate is about to be disrupted by someone from her mother's past.

As the Dreadmount erupts, unleashing an age of terror and violence, these courageous women must find the strength to protect humankind from a devastating threat. With "Roots of Chaos: A Day of Fallen Night," Shannon delivers another masterpiece, full of intrigue, adventure, and powerful female characters. Dive into this richly imagined world and discover the origins of the chaos that lies ahead.

SAMANTHA SHANNON General Fantasy Books Editorial Review

The reception of "The Roots of Chaos: A Day of Fallen Night" seems to be mixed based on customer reviews. While some customers received a brand new, authentic copy with no damage to the pages, others expressed disappointment with the condition in which the book arrived. Some reported that the cover was ripped upon arrival, causing frustration as they were unable to fully appreciate the book due to its condition. It appears that there were issues with the packaging and shipping of the book, with one reviewer claiming that the book was not adequately protected during transit, resulting in damage to both the corner of the book and the jacket. This lack of care in handling the product left a negative impression on customers, especially those who are collectors and value the condition of their purchases. In summary, while the content of the book itself may be of interest to readers, the overall customer experience seems to have been soured by issues related to the packaging and shipping process. **
