About this audiobook
The dead are standing up at Khest, and a dragon in the salt is trying to rise.
Ronan rode a dragon off the edge of the world and woke with an empty wound where his sword should have been. Something drew Ferrus Magnus from the carcass, and whatever wants a blade that killed a dragon, he does not mean to leave it armed.
The trail leads to an inn where refugees are fleeing the same rumor: a grey figure whose ash will not fall. He isn't killing the north. He's collecting it.
The roads converge. Keira, who tracked Ronan down a mountain. Galix, carrying a truth his white city refuses to hear. Beneath the salt, a wizard who has hunted this enemy for a year and a half and knows whose fault he is.
Steel passes through the grey man. Arrows ignore him. On the white flats, an army of the dead is forming ranks around a dragon that has begun to test its jaw.
The company stands together. It may not be enough.
The First Burning is Book Four of The Age of Ash and Book One of The Age of Scales.
