Synopsis
It is a time of intrigue, fanaticism and rampaging armies. Distrust of sorcery has unleashed a purge of the mageborn -- none reviled more than Arithon, Master of Shadow. Through clever manipulation of events at the hands of Lysaer, Master of Light, Arithon's very name has become anathema. Now, the volatile hatreds that first spearheaded the campaign against Shadow have overtaken all reason. Those that still stand in Arithon's desperate defence are downtrodden, in retreat and close to defeat. The stage is set for ultimate betrayal.

Hardback: 9½" x 6¼". Etat : Very Good: Light signs of wear. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. Cover Art: Janny Wurts (illustrateur). 1st UK Edition. © 1999: 2nd in the 'Alliance Of Light' series of books. 1st UK edition, 1st printing:- Synopsis: The wars began when two half-brothers, gifted of light and shadow, stood shoulder to shoulder to defeat the Mistwraith. In defeat, their foe set its captors at odds, bestowing upon them a lifelong curse of enmity that has so far woven three bitter conflicts and uncounted deadly intrigues. Arithon - Master of Shadow, mage trained and masterbard - his life has become the cipher upon which the fate of the world must turn. Lysaer - master of Light - has used his charisma to forge an Alliance of Light sworn to destroy his half-brother. It is a time of intrigue, fanaticism and rampaging armies. Distrust of sorcery has set off a purge of the talented mageborn - none reviled more than Arithon. Through clever manipulation of events at the hands of Lysaer, Arithon's very name has become anathema. Now the volatile hatreds that spearheaded the campaign against Shadow have overtaken all reason. Those that still stand in Arithon's desperate defence are downtrodden, in retreat and close to defeat. And the stage is set for the ultimate betrayal:- Review(s): "Janny Wurts writes with astonishing energy; she aims high. Just when you think she's gone as far as anyone can go, she raises the stakes. It ought to be illegal for one person to have so much talent" - Stephen R Donaldson / "Janny Wurts builds beautiful castles in the air where every detail is richly imagined and vividly rendered" - Diana Gabaldon / "With each new book it becomes more and more obvious how important Janny Wurts is to contemporary fantasy" - Guy Gavriel Kay / "Like the best of Tolkien and Frank Herbert, Janny Wurts' worlds are bursting with the primal force, brimming with unforgettable characters, infused with magic both dark and glorious" - Eric Lustbader / "Here is a magical tale that weaves a most wonderful song" - Dennis L McKiernan / "The Wars of Light and Shadow will be the hit of the 90s as Tolkien was the hit of the 60s" - Marion Zimmer Bradley / "Astonishingly original and compelling. A gifted creator of wonder" - Raymond E Feist:- (original cost £16.99). N° de réf. du vendeur 20.051.00184
