دانلود کتاب Days of Shattered Faith 2024

Days of Shattered Faith (2024) by Adrian Tchaikovsky is the third entry in the Tyrant Philosophers series, set in the richly detailed city of Alkhalend, capital of Usmai. The story introduces Loret, a newly arrived Cohort‑Invigilator in Outreach, assigned to assist Sage‑Invigilator Angilly (“Gil”) during a dangerously unapproved midnight duel. As Gil and Loret navigate diplomatic intrigue, they confront Usmai’s impending royal succession crisis, necromantic conspiracies, gathered demons, pirate kings, and ancient gods on the verge of resurgence. Adrian Tchaikovsky explores the clash between rigid Palleseen rationalism and deeply rooted local faiths, weaving political thriller and magical realism into a tense, morally complex narrative.

With themes of colonialism, faith versus reason, and personal loyalty under pressure, Adrian Tchaikovsky populates Alkhalend with a diverse cast—Gil torn between empire duty and emotional ties, Dekamran the scholar prince, Loret with hidden depths, and non‑human characters like demon croskin and a frog god cult. Through shifting points of view, betrayal, romance, and dark humor, Tchaikovsky builds a mosaic of intersecting motivations. The result is a gripping and thought‑provoking standalone that deepens the series’ examination of power, belief, and survival¹.
