With the seriously-injured Clearwater now safely in their hands the First Family hatches a plan to capture Cadillac and Mr Snow and annihilate the Clan M'Call; a plan in which Steve is forced to continue his double-role as loyal agent of the Confederation and blood-brother to the Plainfolk.
The First Family is hell-bent on exacting retribution for past defeats and the twice-bloodied House of Yama-Shita, a leading Iron Master family, is also thirsting for vengeance. Both parties blindly pursue their own ends unaware that the final outcome is not governed by force of arms but by the irrevocable power of prophecy. And Steve Brickman, comes to understand why some among the Clan M'Call, who knew him better than he knew himself, chose to call him 'Death Bringer'.

About the Author:
Patrick Tilley was born in Essex in 1928, but spent his formative years in the border counties of Northumbria and Cumbria. After studying art at King's College, University of Durham, he came to London in 1955 and rapidly established himself as one of Britain's leading graphic designers. He began writing part-time in 1959.
In 1968 he gave up design altogether in favour of a new career as a film scriptwriter. Work on several major British-based productions was followed by writing assignments in New York and Hollywood. His books have been translated into several languages, and have achieved cult-novel status.

Hundreds of years after civilisation has been destroyed by nuclear war, the Earth is divided between the Trackers of the Amtrak Federation a community living in vast subterranean cities and the Mutes, who have evolved to withstand the radiation that has driven their foes underground. A long war for possession of the overground has killed and enslaved many of the Mutes, leaving only the Plainfolk to resist the Federation. And now the Iron Masters a powerful people living in the traditions of the Samurai have joined the struggle for dominance.Steve Brickman, Tracker agent for the Amtrak Federation, and blood brother to the Mute clan MCall, is struggling to maintain his double life. After evading the Iron Masters, Brickmans love Mute summoner Clearwater has finally been captured by the Federation. As she lays fighting for her life, Brickman must keep up the pretence of his disinterest in front of his Federation handlers. Pretending to orchestrate a plan to capture Cadillac and Mr Snow, who intimidate the Federation with their strong Mute earth-magic, Steve finds it increasingly difficult to outwit his Tracker comrades. Only Roz his powerfully psychic kin-sister knows of Brickmans predicament. Together they must work tirelessly under a false loyalty to the Federation.They must prepare themselves, for a great battle is coming, one which will test the Plainfolk magic to its limit, and prove Brickman worthy of the name Death Bringer.
