An epic-fantasy search beyond the Wall
The second Wall of Night novel returns to an imperiled realm defended by nine great Houses and a mountain barrier against the Darkswarm. Five years after the Heir of Night disappeared, the book follows a broad ensemble divided between those maintaining the beleaguered Wall and those pursuing the missing heir. Its central tensions arise from a world under external threat as loyalties fracture and treachery complicates a high-stakes quest. As part of a planned four-book series, it develops an ongoing conflict rather than presenting a standalone premise.
Good fit for readers who enjoy
- Epic-fantasy readers who enjoy expansive worlds and large casts
- Readers interested in quests shaped by divided loyalties and political treachery
- Fans continuing the Wall of Night series after the first book

Sure to become an epic fantasy classic, Helen Lowe's magnificent Wall of Night series is big, ambitious, and gorgeously drawn--a story of bravery, treachery, and cataclysm in a richly imagined world. The Gathering of the Lost is the second of four books set in a fantastic imperiled realm garrisoned by nine great Houses and protected from the terrible Darkswarm by the towering mountain range that gives the series its name. Supremely literate, brilliantly imagined and executed fantasy in the vein of Brandon Sanderson, Guy Gavriel Kay, and Barbara Hambly, The Gathering of the Lost is populated by a grand cast of unforgettable characters, some still holding to the beleaguered Wall, others scattered in their quest for the fabled Heir of Night, who vanished from their midst five years earlier.
