Priest, eunuch, and history teacher, Pagaose is rewarded by
the gods for his good deeds at the conclusion of the epic fantasy “Dreams of
the Fallen.” Reshaped into the perfect image of an emperor, Pagaose is dropped
from the sky and given three miracles to guide mankind through the three
generations with no contact from the gods. While the College of Wizards
plots to discredit or kill him, Pagaose must rally the aristocrats by picking a
suitable Empress candidate from each country. Each woman offers him alliances as
well as enticements that disturb his dreams—each woman, that is, except the one
he wants. Meanwhile, the ruler of the north plans to invade the island of Center,
and a nightmarish dragon terrorizes the Inner Sea. After the first few days,
this doesn’t feel like a reward anymore.
