Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In Steven Erikson's 2012 book "Forge of Darkness" you discover that Lord Draconus actually has three daughters. Envy, Spite and...?

Answer: Malice

You follow Envy and Spite's stories through the "Book of the Fallen" series a lot, but there's no mention of a third sister at all along the way.

2. In the fourth book of the series, "House of Chains" Karsa Orlong kills a few tiste edur on board the Silanda. One of the tiste edur is a Sengar brother. Which brother?

Answer: Binadas

The imperial historian Duiker and his party discover the corpses on board the Silanda in the second book of the series "Deadhouse Gates", but it's not until "Midnight Tides", the fifth book of the series that you realize the body of the captain is actually Binadas Sengar.

Answer: Seventh

He eventually had to flee with exhaustion. After Anomander was killed, Traveller his slayer took his place as the seventh among the agatii.

4. In the eighth book of the series, "Toll the Hounds", Karsa Orlong was told he was to kill a god. Which god?

Answer: Fener

The scene led you to believe it was going to be The Crippled God who Karsa was to kill but was actually the God of War Fener, because his blood was needed to bring the undead back alive in the final book of the series, "The Crippled God".

5. In the sixth book of the series, "The Bonehunters", you discover Shadowthrone has a son. Who is Shadowthrone's son?

Answer: His name is never revealed

Throughout the first five books in the series of the Fallen you never suspect Shadowthrone of having a son, but it's revealed in a conversation between High Mage Tayschrenn and Shadowthrone that he has, and that he should worry about the son's safety.

Answer: The sacrifice of millions in the Jaghut war against death

High King Kallor is notoriously cold hearted and evil but reveals his softer side when Gothos tells him the tale of the Jaghut war against death.

Answer: Urko Crust

Urko Crust was among the fake drownings when the empire changed hands from Kellenvad to Laseen. He became Keeper to avoid assassination by Laseen.

8. In the first book of the series, "Gardens of the Moon", many Bridgeburners lost their lives when the tunnels collapsed under which city?

Answer: Pale

It was High Mage Tayschrenn prevented a rescue effort after the collapse, apparently acting on orders from Empress Laseen, who was eradicating all of the previous Emperor Kellenvad's old guard.

9. In the final book of the series, "The Crippled God", Yedan Derryg was killed by a tiste liosan soletaken in the battle for the first shore. Which tiste liosan soletaken?

Answer: Aparal Forge

In the epic battle for the first shore Yedan Derryg killed a thousand tiste liosan warriors, four hounds of light, and three soletaken dragons, including his slayer Aparal Forge who died due to wounds inflicted by Yedan Derryg.

10. By the end of the final book in the series, "The Crippled God" who is the Sister of Cold Nights?

Answer: Korlat

Nightchill was the previous Sister of Cold Nights until she was killed by a demon in the first book of the series, "Gardens of the Moon", due to Kallor's curse. Yan Tovis, the Queen of the Shake, elected Korlat as the new Sister of Cold Nights after the battle for the first shore.
