© 2018: 3rd in the 'Echoes Of The Fall' series of books. 1st edition, 1st printing hardback. Signed & doodled by the author to the title page. Protected by a new, removable, clear cover:- Synopsis: They face a hunger that could consume the gods themselves. From the depths of myth, an ancient enemy has returned: the Plague People, whose very presence obliterates whole villages; whose terror destroys minds. In their wake, nothing is left of the people - not their places, not their ways. On the plains, the warriors and the wise of all tribes gather to confront the aggressor. Loud Thunder leads his great war-host south, even as Tecumet and Asman head north with the Sun River army. With Maniye Many Tracks, they plan to forge a new unity between the tribes such as the world has never seen. But will it be enough to stave off an oblivion that might devour even their gods? Their adversary's presence is like a wound in the world, and wakes all the old terrors and evils from the peoples' stories. But before they can deal with the enemies without, they must conquer their demons within:- Review(s): Praise for the series: "It's addictively brilliant. I love both the story and the world Adrian has created" - John Gwynne / "A classically brilliant fantasy writer, a pusher of boundaries, a great storyteller" - Paul Cornell / "A story you can really lose yourself in" - SFX / "Maniye Many Tracks is a fascinating character; layered, strong, torn, constantly developing and hugely emphatic" - SciFiNow / Tchaikovsky has woven a richly textured world, brimming with difference and complexity" - SFReader / "A ripping fantasy-yarn and a well-paced world, created and revealed with care" - The Bookbag / "A beautifully fierce fantasy about our need to belong and the importance of our choices, this is a coming of age tale with bite" - Geek Syndicate:- (original cost £18.99). …

The unmaking of the world has begun. The Hyena and the Hawk is the conclusion to Adrian Tchaikovsky’s epic fantasy trilogy, Echoes of the Fall, following The Bear and the Serpent.
‘A classically brilliant fantasy writer’ – Paul Cornell, author of Witches of Lychford
From the depths of the darkest myths, the soulless Plague People have returned. Their pale-walled camps obliterate villages, just as the terror they bring with them destroys minds. In their wake, nothing is left of the true people: not their places, not their ways. The Plague People will remake the world as though they had never been.
The heroes and leaders of the true people – Maniye, Loud Thunder, Hesprec and Asman – will each fight the Plague People in their own ways. They will seek allies, gather armies and lead the charge. But a thousand swords or ten thousand spears will not suffice to turn back this enemy. The end is at hand for everything the true people know . . .
Complete the transporting, sweeping coming-of-age fantasy series that began with The Tiger and the Wolf.
Readers love The Hyena and the Hawk:
‘A very satisfying ending to a most excellent trilogy’
‘This will certainly be a series I will be treasuring and reading again’
‘Tchaikovsky has become one of my favourite authors’
