Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The world is turning to stone, and the silence is deafening.In the fractured land of Yamato, the earth is dying. It begins with a scent of old copper and a dusting of grey grit. Then, the soil hardens into lifeless slate, and the harvest rattles like dry bones. This is the Stone Sickness-a creeping, primordial horror that transforms flesh, leaf, and limb into unyielding granite. While warlords squabble over scorched earth and fading banners, an ancient cosmic chill is awakening in the mountains, threatening to entomb the world in a final, breathless flash-freeze.Saito Kenshin is a ghost of a man. Once a commander of respect, he is now a ronin drifting through the wreckage of his own failure. Haunted by the betrayal that destroyed his clan, he seeks nothing but a cold end-until he intercepts a bone-etched key to the Heart-Stone fragments. These relics are the only hope of binding the Stone Serpent, a deity of indifferent malice summoned by a fanatical cult. Kenshin is no hero, and he seeks no redemption, but he is the only man with the steel and the silence to face the advancing grey.A Grimdark Epic of Feudal Steel and Cosmic HorrorTo stop the petrification, Kenshin must navigate a landscape of crumbling castles and glass-needle forests. He is joined by an unlikely fellowship of the desperate: Akira Mori: A young clan heir forced to choose between the rigid honor of Bushido and the pragmatic cruelty of survival.Ren: A scholarly monk harboring forbidden rituals that demand a price far heavier than blood.Yui: A lethal assassin and the last guardian of the fragments, whose loyalty is as sharp as her blade.As entire cities become tombs of weeping granite, Kenshin and his allies must reach the Temple of Whispering Stones. But in the shadow of the Serpent, honor is a leaden weight, and the ritual to save Yamato requires the sacrifice of the one thing Kenshin has left: his soul.Shadows of the Stone Serpent is a dark, atmospheric historical fantasy that blends the brutal martial arts of the samurai with the soul-crushing dread of Lovecraftian horror. Perfect for fans of The Poppy War and The Blade Itself, Norm Lanum's epic explores whether a scarred future is worth the ultimate cost.Will you stand against the coming chill, or will you shatter with the rest?
