Behold Xxiphu, City of Torment


City of Torment

You didn’t get away. It caught you.

Anusha took the warlock’s sleeping potion to stay in her dreamform while she battled the great kraken.

What do you mean?

That potion that prevented her from waking in time to escape the kraken’s trap.


That godsdamned relic sucked your mind into its heart.


He’d do anything to free her—even go to the City of Torment itself.

Don’t worry. I will go to Xxiphu. I will free you.

He just has to figure out how.

Award-winning game designer Bruce R. Cordell depicts the rise of a monstrous nation of elder evil as only he can in this brand-new trilogy; City of Torment is Book II, following Book I, Plague of Spells. Dedicated to showcasing one of the most fascinating new aspects of the changed face of Faerûn, this trilogy is packed with the exciting battles, wizardry, and monsters that are the hallmark of Forgotten Realms novels as well as introducing a new never-before-seen element of Lovecraftian horror to Faerûn.

City of Torment is available at fine book dealers everywhere.
