Pattern - The Scavenger Trilogy

Amnesiac's quest in a deceit-laden, fantastical world.

"Pattern" might strike a chord with you if you're into deep, intricate plots where the protagonist fights against unseen forces and his own troubled past. K.J. Parker excels at immersing readers into the conflicted mind of Poldarn and a realistically grim fantasy setting. If you're after a narrative that weaves personal mystery with a richly crafted world, this could well be your next addictive read.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

In a world he does not know, Poldarn's future is uncertain. Pursued by invisible enemies, and haunted by the demons of his past, nobody can be trusted - not even himself, it seems. Attempting to piece together his own life from whatever scattered fragments he can find and dreams that hide as much as they reveal has brought him nothing but trouble. Now all he craves is peace. But will he find it on the island he believes to be his childhood home? Or will this place hold more terrors for him to confront? K.J. Parker's SHADOW began a ground-breaking new series that takes fantasy into remarkable new territory. Now, with PATTERN, the extraordinary story of Poldarn takes a new shape. Sorry!
