Daniel Polansky - Those Above (Empty Throne 1) (epub)

They enslaved humanity three thousand years ago. Tall, strong, perfect, superhuman
and near immortal they rule from their glittering palaces in the eternal city in
the centre of the world. They are called Those Above by their subjects. They enforce
their will with fire and sword.

Twenty five years ago mankind mustered an army and rose up against them, only to be
slaughtered in a terrible battle. Hope died that day, but hatred survived. Whispers
of another revolt are beginning to stir in the hearts of the oppressed: a woman,
widowed in the war, who has dedicated her life to revenge; the general, the only man
to ever defeat one of Those Above in single combat, summoned forth to raise a new
legion; and a boy killer who rises from the gutter to lead an uprising in the capital.
