As their legions scour the world of superstition with the bright flame of reason, so they deliver a mountain of ragged, holed and scorched flesh to the field hospital tents just behind the front line. Which is where Yasnic, one-time priest, healer and rebel, finds himself. Reprieved from the gallows and sent to war clutching a box of orphan Gods, he has been sequestered to a particularity unorthodox medical unit. Led by 'the Butcher', an ogre of a man who's a dab hand with a bone-saw and an alchemical tincture, the unit's motley crew of conscripts, healers and orderlies are no strangers to the horrors of war. Theirs is an unspeakable trade: elbow-deep in gore they have a first-hand view of the suffering caused by flesh-rending monsters, arcane magical weaponry and embittered enemy soldiers. Entrusted - for now - with saving lives deemed otherwise un-saveable, the field hospital's crew face a precarious existence. Their work with unapproved magic, necromancy, demonology and Yasnic's thoroughly illicit Gods could lead to the unit being disbanded, arrested or worse. Beset by enemies within and without, the last thing anyone needs is a miracle..."--Amazon. 650 0 $a Imaginary wars and battles $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Magic $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Healers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Medicine, Military $v Fiction. 650 6 $a Guerres et batailles imaginaires $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a GueÌrisseurs $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a MeÌdecine militaire $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 7 $a Imaginary wars and battles $v Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a Magic $v Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a Healers $v Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a Military medicine $v Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a Geographical myths $v Fiction. $2 sears 655 7 $a Fantasy fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a War fiction. $2 lcgft 800 0 $a Tchaikovsky, Adrian. $t Tyrant Philosophers ; $v bk. 2. 941 $a 4 952 $l ETPD745 $d 20240809022920.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20240604011909.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20240409012814.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20240402012038.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8F2C13E2F0B811EE9EC0998A3BECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b C@VInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
