Publisher's Summary

The Sea Watch is the sixth book in the critically acclaimed epic fantasy series Shadows of the Apt by Adrian Tchaikovsky, winner of the Arthur C. Clarke Award.

Danger lurks beneath dark waters....

A shadow is falling over Collegium. Despite the tenuous peace, Stenwold Maker knows that the Empire will return for his city. Even as he tries to prepare for the resurgence of the black-and-gold army, a hidden threat is working against his people. Ships that sail from Collegium's harbour are being attacked, sunk by pirates. Some just go missing....

Lulled by the spread of lies and false promises, Stenwold's allies are falling away. He faces betrayal on every side, and the Empire is just waiting for the first sign of weakness to strike. But they are not the only power that has its eyes on Collegium. And even with all their military strength and technology, they may not be powerful enough to stave off the forces massing in the darkness.

The Sea Watch is followed by the seventh book in the Shadows of the Apt series, Heirs of the Blade.

That left hook!

Another fantastically read performance by Ben Allen. His ability to hold the continuity of the characters across such a varied story is nothing but amazing.

This book in the shadows of the apt is quite the turn for the story. I love the introduction of the new kin and I felt a touch of nostalgia for the Children of Time and Children of Ruin when the story was in full flight.

Very interested to see how the story progresses with the next chapter delving into the spiders.
