Storm of the Dead

Storm of the Dead is the second book in the Lady Penitent trilogy by Lisa Smedman, released in September 2007.

"Lolth always plays to win.

When goddesses sit down to play a game, the stakes are the souls of their worshipers, and their own immortality. Not even the other gods of the Demonweb Pits can resist the draw of that fateful game, and one has already fallen.

But there are mortals that can sense even the shifting winds of the Outer Planes, and not all of them are powerless, even in the face of the Queen of the Demonweb Pits. After all, it took a mortal to make Lolth what she's become, and it may take another mortal to put her back in her place.

But how many more gods will die in the process?"
